Jason usually makes both of us lunch on the weekends (well, he makes all of the meals on weekends when we don't go out). Those of you who are familiar with my eating habits know that I will blindly grab anything from the pantry that doesn't require slicing, dicing, julienneing, or for that matter, heating, and call it a meal. It is not unknown for Jason to go on a business trip and for me to consider a decent dinner a plateful of Triscuits, mini gerhkins, some cheese and a brownie.
But, hold on to your cookbooks. I have a suggestion for a quick, easy, and nutritious sandwich. I can't take credit for the creation, because a restaurant in Urbana, IL was the originator. Here you go:
Monkey Sandwich
2 slices whole-wheat bread
1 banana
1-2 tablespoons peanut butter (extra crunchy is the PB of Champions)
Some coconut flakes
Drizzle of honey
Sliced almonds (optional)
Take pieces of bread and put on a plate. Spread PB. Slice banana and squish gently into peanut butter. Sprinkle coconut flakes, then drizzle honey. Take second slice of bread and place onto masterpiece. Gently push almonds into top of bread slice. (Toasting of the bread is optional, but don't bet on keeping the almonds on top afterwards.)
Trust me, it's GOOD.
