The MIGHTY Almond



Some products I have been buying for the Endo-diet

Trader Joes' Almond butter and Almond milk

Trader Joes has quite a few things that I have been buying for my new endo-Diet and they are really tasty! I use almond milk in place of regular milk in my gluten free cereal, irish oats and other recipes and I also use rice milk as well, but NO Soy milk! Say NO to soy please!

I actually surprised myself and was quite successful with battering some fresh fish using just almond milk and then rolling it in ground up corn chips with seasoning..it was yummy!! I wasn't sure I could pull it off without eggs because i felt it wouldn't be sticky enough but boy I was oh so wrong, there is hope out there for us crazy diet followers! I will post the recipe soon! I also love to eat this almond butter when I am not eating organic peanut butter. You can use it the same way as peanut butter. I like to put it on my celery and on my gluten free toast...mmm yummy! I want to try it in some cookies sometime...maybe I will experiment with that on here soon! In what ways do you eat your almond butter and almond milk? Do you have any stellar recipes?

My grandfather has an almond orchard and we get a huge tin of fresh almonds every christmas. I love love love fresh almonds, they are so good for you! My grandfather has extremely good health at 85 years of age and he looks ten years younger than he really is. I keep kidding him that I think it has to do with all the almond he eats...but maybe there is some truth to that? Could the mighty almond be the hidden fountain of youth? Ponder on that one sistas!
