aubregary Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I am starting very soon and just getting my do's and dont's straight! I can't find if Almond Butter and other nut butters are ok on plan? I know Peanut Butter is out, right. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ShannonM816 Posted August 31, 2014 Moderators Share Posted August 31, 2014 The Can I Have list is here. The Rules are here. Peanut butter is definitely a no. Almond butter, sun butter, and other nut butters are okay, as long as all the ingredients are okay. So no nut butters with sugar or other off-plan ingredients. Read your labels. Also keep in mind that nuts and nut butters are food with no brakes for many people -- as in, once you start eating them, you have trouble stopping and overeat them.

praxisproject Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 They can also be a bit of a snacking trap too for some people, snacks of fruit with nut butter instead of proper size meals. The Sunshine Sauce from The Clothes Make The Girl is made with sunbutter, but I think it tastes like peanuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrannieD Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 WholeFoods lets you grind the almonds in the store to make your own almond butter. No additives! Rouse's (a local store here) has the same setup. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
