I was at the health food store today just looking around for something new and discovered pumpkin seed butter. It was expensive but I am noticing that the healthier I eat the bigger my grocery bill. Which is OK because I am worth it. A 20 oz. container was almost $10.00. But...

1 Tbsp. contains
100 cal.
8 gr. total fat
1.5 saturated
4.5 polyunsaturated
2.0 monounsaturated

1 fiber - net carbs 0 yipee!
protein 5

The ingredients are pumpkin seeds and celtic sea salt.

You have to stir it up like you would with natural peanut butter. It is dark green, I am not thrilled with the color - looks like green Heinz ketchup which I could never eat because I couldn't get past the color issue. But the taste is wonderful. I think it would be great on celery too.
