Instructions

  • Hull 200 g Strawberries and chop them into small chunks.
  • Put the chopped strawberries and 1 tablespoon Runny honey into a pan over a medium heat.
  • Bring to a simmer and mash down with a wooden spoon. Stir continuously for 6 minutes.
  • Take off the heat and add 1 tablespoon Chia seeds.
  • Mix well and pour into a bowl and leave to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Spread 4 tablespoon Peanut butter over 8 slice Whole wheat bread.
  • Add the strawberry jelly.
  • Top with fruit and another slice of bread.

Notes

  • Try toasting the bread and then grilling this sandwich to make the peanut butter nice and melty.
  • You don't have to use regular bread slices for this sandwich. Try making it with bagels, English muffins or tortillas.
  • Mix things up a little by using a savoury jam like chilli or bacon.
  • Add extra nutrients with some banana and blueberries, or try some raspberries and cherries instead.
