The good old American staple, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich has been known for providing some protein to our diets but most jelly is so full of added sugar. Oh dear! So what can we do to make it healthier? Try having some almond butter or cashew butter instead of peanut butter! Cashew butter provides magnesium and copper and almond butter has lots of magnesium and manganese, and has strong anti-inflammatory properties.
Also be sure to have some bread loaded with whole grain. The more grains the better I say! And how about a reduced sugar jam? You won't notice the difference in taste. Better yet, make your own jam at home! Then you know exactly what's inside. I'll make some homemade jam very soon and show you every step. Won't that be fun!? Here's to healthier eating everywhere!
