Strawberry brazil nut milk, cinnamon pecan butter, almond joy cookies (!)--I could go on and on. Whether you're just beginning to make more homemade staples or you've been making nut milk for years and want to take it to the next level, Melissa King has you covered." -- Alana Chernila, author of The Homemade Pantry and creator of EatingFromTheGroundUp.com "Melissa King is a healthful treat genius. I stumbled upon her website one day looking up a wholesome dessert recipe to make with my son. That first recipe, and every other one I've tried since, have not only been over-the-top delicious, but also nutritious. Melissa does a delightful job of combining the two." -- Ivy Larson, author of Clean Cuisine and founder of CleanCuisine.com " DIY Nut Milks, Nut Butters, and More should be called an encyclopedia.
