To create my pb & j remix, I subbed out the bread in favor of a Tam-x-ico’s whole wheat tortilla to make a roll-up.
Fortunately the amazing people at Barney Butter sent me a delicious lil’ packet of almond butter that served at the nutty spread in my revised PB & J.
This almond butter is so tasty! I bet I could eat an entire bowl full of it without a problem (though my thighs might disagree 😉 ).
In place of jelly, I used REAL fruit. Who would’ve thought!? I used frozen raspberries that I let thaw to add the sweetness normal jelly provides in a traditional PB & J sandwich.
The bad boy did not disappoint. Though my PB & J sandwich was more of a AB & R roll up, I enjoyed every last bite.
Is there anything almond butter wouldn’t make better???
What is your favorite kind of nut butter?
I am dying to try pumpkin seed butter, but haven’t had a chance to yet. Whole Foods has a machine that cranks out honey roasted peanut butter that is unbelievable!
Okay, all this nut butter talk is a little too much for a peanut butter lover like me… I’m officially salivating and I just finished lunch!

Agree with Morgan! PB & Co is SO good. Dark choc dreams and cinnamon raison are my favs!
Also, a HUGE fan of Justins Nut Butters—specifically there almond butters.
Never tried Barneys though!

I love Barney Butter but those little packets piss me off, I always feel like I got shorted on the full tbsp.
Whitney @ Lettuce Love says
I love almond butter but I really want to make sunflower butter this weekend.

I can’t decide what my favorite nut butter is – right now it’s a tie between sunbutter and maranatha no stir creamy PB. Love them BOTH! 🙂
