What Did You Learn on the Nuts Rung?

Re: What Did You Learn on the Nuts Rung?

Nuts are my friends, as long as I limit myself to an ounce or two every day.


One thing I love to do is grind up some nuts (usually walnut or pecans) and mix it with a little splenda and butter. Then slice up some strawberries and cook the strawberries with cinnamon and a packet of splenda in a little pan. Then I put the strawberries in a small baking dish (I have a bunch of little ones) and put the nut mixture over them and bake it until the whole thing is brown. I don't do it very often, but OMG when I do. Sometimes, if my in-laws are having a party, I'll make up a big casserole dish of "strawberry bake" for it.

Of course, it's a very berry-dependent dish, but the magic is really in the nuts.

I really like almond butter--it's not overly sweet, and it's healthier than peanut butter. The only downside is the price--it's a bit expensive.

I learned that I am absolutely powerless over macadamia nuts.

I won't even attempt to buy those. The SO points them out in the store everytime we're there. Saying "you can have these now..why not get some, I know you love them?" Sure wish I could limit myself with those...but I can't. Shoot I can go thru a can of them like no ones business.

sometimes I feel like a nut. sometimes I don't

when I do I notice I am never alone.........


I seem to be followed every where I go.......


I can't understand it.........squirrels seem to be coming out of the wood work.......

So I offered my hand in friendship........




Sometimes I feel like a nut
Sometimes I don't.

I bought some almond butter at the health food store the other day, didn't intend on buying it but went shopping hungry. Only bought good stuff, but things not on my list. Anyway, the brand is Tree of Life, toasted almond butter. It is so yummy, better than peanut butter. Just a spoon was a satisfiying treat. It's a good thing its expensive so I won't over indulge.

Thanks for this tip. I've never tried it before either, but now that I know everyone loves it, I'm open to give it a whirl.

Yum, I love almond butter too. I like the raw almond butter even better than the toasted. Mmmmmmmmmmm

Re: What Did You Learn on the Nuts Rung?

Hum...I wish I had a little almond butter now. I, however, do have some natural almonds at my desk. I guess I could crunch them up in my mouth and make instant butter?

I can't wait to try it. I may be going to a large health food store next week and they sell it freshly made there.
