You know that stuff that starts with an N and rhymes with “uh-tella”?
Am I the only one who loves to eat it…out of the jar…with a spoon…until the jar is empty? 
Since that is probably not the best way to reach and maintain our goals, I had to come up with some way for us to indulge and still stay on track, because we have FOOD FREEDOM around here! This protein packed spread does the trick! It works for breakfast, dessert or even a mid-day snack! Enjoy fruit, croissants even pretzels with it and don’t you dare feel guilty about it, even for one second!
