Miso Nutbutter Spread

My favorite way to get kids a little extra protein and probiotics. You can play around with different flavors of miso and nutbutter combinations. My family is partial to a cashew and red or yellow miso combination, walnuts are lovely in this recipe too.

Recipe Highlights

• The miso provides protein and live enzymes to aid digestion. The nuts will provide grounding, fats and more protein.

• Energetics: Miso is warm, grounding and enters the Stomach, Spleen, Lungs and Kidney.  Nuts are grounding and calming, unless eaten in excess, then they will have the reverse affect.
