The time has finally come.
I am officially beginning to like the taste of SunButter.
Not that it’s a big deal if I didn’t like it, I just hate to waste food. I would have found a way to finish the jar, or snuck some into Matt’s sandwiches to see if he noticed

Banana egg white oats, topped with blueberries and a mixture of raw almond butter and sunbutter.
I like to try all different types of food, and it’s good to have a variety of nutrients in our diet.
Since the summer is creeping up at a rapid pace, delicious fruits such as cherries, berries, kiwis and melons will begin to stock the shelves at grocery stores and Farmer’s Market’s.
All fruits and vegetables taste better when they are in season, and I like to incorporate all of them into my daily dishes.
I’m loving pineapple lately, and have been adding some to my yogurt and smoothies for a juicy hint of tang. Eating it frozen is delicious as well, and makes for a great night time snack mixed with some dark chocolate or cottage cheese.
I like to have variety when it comes to my beverages as well. I can only drink so much water.
Tea, Coffee, Naturally sweetened lemonade, ACV cocktails.
you can also make your own lemonade by combining water, fresh lemon juice, and a packet of all natural sweetener such as Truvia or Stevia.
Here’s a fun chart describing what Tea works best for you depending on your mood.
I also get plenty of vegetables in different forms throughout my week.
eggwhite omelet with kale, steamed broccoli and carrots, 1/2 cold sweet potato topped with melted coconut oil, which forms a hard shell of tropical bliss.

I always grab the skewer with the most charred vegetables on it
Once we find what we like, it’s easy to eat the same foods over and over again. However, it’s important to give your body an abundance of nutrients from different sources to stay strong, energetic and glowing.
Start introducing a healthy variety of fruits, vegetables, proteins and fats into your diet to find what makes YOUR body happy.

It also took me some time to get liking the Sunbutter flavor – I actually thought it was weirdly sweet. In the interest of using up my jar so it didn’t languish in my fridge forever, I used it to make Sunbutter Cookies…they were fabulous! I found the recipe floating on Pinterest.
Good idea!!
Sunbutter is my absolute favorite! I buy the same kind! I find myself just sticking the spoon in sometimes and eating straight from the jar. And I’m glad you like cold sweet potatoes! I thought I was the only one!
Cold sweet potatos are so good in a salad, or thrown in a smoothie with greek yogurt
I love when coconut oil makes a coating on top of foods once they cool. Soo delicious. I also make my own lemonade with stevia and lemons. Great alternative. I like adding vodka to it on the weekends
Vodka is a definite addition on the weekends lol
