TIED—Almond Butter

Grams of protein per 2 TBSP: 6

Justin’s may just be the most popular almond butter brand on the market and with 6 grams of satiating protein, it’s one of our preferred nut kinds of butter.

We love Justin’s because of all the different kinds of flavors of almond butter they make including honey, vanilla, and dark chocolate.
