Product Review: Artisana Nut Butters

There are always so many different brands of nut butters it can be hard to sift through them all. I am very picky about the consistency and taste of the nut butters that I eat. Since I began eating paleo, it was hard to omit peanut butter. (Mostly because I considered it a food group.) However, I've learned to like other types of nut butters now too. The people at Artisana sent me some of their awesome products to review.
 I tried the organic almond butter and the cacao coconut butter. Oh my goodness...so SO tasty. The almond butter was just the right consistency, and had an awesome flavor. Not to mention the stellar nutrition facts...
Ingredients: 100% organic raw almonds. That's it.  
 The coconut cacao butter was absolutely divine as well. It tasted like chocolate pina colada on my apples, and it is GOOD. BTW, eating apples sliced this way more fun than any normal way.
 They also sent me a bunch of other sample packets of their awesome products. So great!
If you are looking for some deliciously whole and nutty goodness, Artisana has some AWESOME products to offer. I would definitely recommend them!
DAY # 21: 21 Pushups with Mountain Climbers
Start in a regular pushup position. Do a full pushup and then a mountain climber on each side, bringing one knee into your chest and then the other knee into your chest. Go back into the next push up. Etc. These will get that heart rate up, and they will work your core and arms at the same time!

I adore Artisana! The cacao coconut butter is one of my favorite food products of all time. Their regular coconut butter is also delicious - especially if you melt it down and drizzle it over baked sweet potato fries. Have a great day!!!
