Almond Butter
Compared to peanut butter, almond butter has about the same amount of protein per two tablespoons—right around 7 grams—while also packing seven times more calcium, as well as 50% more magnesium. It also has a higher level of monounsaturated fats, which can lower your LDL cholesterol levels.
Taste: Mild and creamy, and very easy to spread.
Uses: This butter works great as a schmear, or as a substitute for butter or oil in baked goods. You can also add it to smoothies and soups for a thicker consistency.
