Nut-Free Alternatives For Your Next PB&J

Having a nut allergy can be a major bummer if you love the idea of comfort foods like a good ole’ PB&J sandwich. But guess what – there are other options out there that can meet your dietary needs while providing the satisfaction of this classic, simple dish. The same goes if you’re just plain over the basics – you have choices!

Maybe you prefer your PB on apples? Or crackers? However you spread it, you should definitely dip into these alternatives to nut butter – the three I have for you here are Pumpkin Seed Butter, Sunflower Seed Butter, and Tahinomelo (a Greek-inspired tahini-honey spread).
