Almond “Cream” Cheese
A 4-ingredient cheese-like spread made from blanched almonds* + water + vinegar or lemon juice + sea salt.
*Blanched almonds are used in this recipe to keep the color white like cream cheese, but they do have slightly less fiber & vitamin E than their skin-on counterparts, so when snacking stick to almonds w/ skins.
ALMOND “CREAM” CHEESE vs REGULAR CREAM CHEESE
Almond “cream” cheese will not save you any calories over regular cream cheese, however it will give you way more nutrition. Each 2 T of Almond “Cream” Cheese contains:
– 5g of plant protein
– 2g filling fiber
– anti-inflammatory fats
– bone-building magnesium
– 30% daily dose of skin-firming vitamin E
*Plus, nut eaters live longer and healthier than non-nut eaters.*
You can smear this stuff on everything!
