Reasons to love peanut butter
- It’s an affordable nut butter option. I know that there are tons of fancy options when it comes to buying nut butter these days, but I usually find that good old peanut butter is one of the most affordable ones. I do recommend using an all natural brand that’s just peanuts + salt.

- It’s versatile! As you’ll see below, there are hundreds of ways to use peanut butter in both sweet and savory recipes. Plus, it tastes amazing.
