Satisfy a PB&J craving with these high-fiber sandwiches (bread not necessary). The chia jam is quick to make and can be stored for up to 3 days- spread on anything you would regularly eat with jam to add extra fiber.

Ingredients

1/2 cup raspberries

1/2 cup blueberries

1 tablespoon chia seeds

2 teaspoons honey

8 large brown rice cakes

4 tablespoons natural smooth peanut butter

1/2 small Asian pear or Golden Delicious apple, cored and cut into 4 even rounds

Directions

  1. Combine the raspberries, blueberries, chia seeds, 1 tablespoon water and the honey in a medium bowl. Smash the mixture with a potato masher or fork until the berries are the consistency of a chunky jam. Cover and refrigerate until the chia seeds soften and the jam thickens slightly, about 30 minutes (the raspberry seeds will give the jam a crunchy texture).
  2. Spread 1 rice cake with 1 tablespoon of peanut butter and top with 1/4 of the chia jam and a slice of pear. Sandwich with another rice cake. Repeat to make 3 more sandwiches

Loved the idea, but a rice cake sandwich is challenging to eat! It crumbles and falls apart. I suggest open faced style.
