Eat nothing but fat!!!!! Home made almond butter recipe!!!!!

Happy March 2015!!!!

Well....haven't been kept accountable and I've let things slide but hey i'm back and I have a great ALL NATURAL recipe for you to try!!!

I got a food processor last Christmas and never really used it because quite frankly, I had no use for it, at least I thought I didn't. I have a had a blender that was handed down to me by my mother that was made in the 1970's and somehow it's still working, so I can still make my protein shakes and smoothies!

Anyways, back to this bad boy right here!



Alright so, first you'll need a food processor. Nothing fancy, just a standard one that has your basic blades. Second, you'll need some WHOLE NATURAL almonds, for the sake of this recipe, you can use salted almonds but I don't recommend it because I like to add my own quantity of salt if I even decide to add any at all, You'll also need coconut oil, I used REFINED coconut oil, and Lastly, Stevia.

After this mixture, I was able to have more than one jar. I used an emptied Maranatha Almond Butter jar for mine.

Remember too when looking at these macros, this almond butter is using two of the VERY BEST momosaturated fats for your body, almonds and coconut oil! Do not be scared by the far content! If anything, this should be what you use daily to hit your macro fat goals!

Alright, I lied....sorry guys, after working the macros, I got crazy numbers, I challenge you to measure and calculate your own macros for this one. This is what I got for mine, but I do not think this calculation is accurate...
