Nutrition Monday ~ Nut Butter Spoons

Sometimes simple is best.  When it comes to snacks for both children & us bigguns, quick is the name of the game, which usually translates to carb-o-rama. Crackers, cookies, cereals, chips...  Carbs aren't all bad, but when you're trying to make as much from scratch for both nutritional & financial reasons, a lot time can be spent in the kitchen keeping up with the high demands of snackage.

My kids were fascinated by watching my parents spoon out some peanut butter for a speedy breakfast or snack. They became the coolest grandparents ever.  Hello!  What a great idea!  My children adore their nut butter snack spoons.  Quick, easy, nutritional.  That's what I'm talkin' 'bout.

While we're on the subject, did you know storing nut butters upside-down naturally makes stirring the oil super-easy?
