Fruit Sando

Generally eaten as a snack or for breakfast, fruit sandwiches are thought to have been created in Japan more than a century ago. You can find them at bakeries, cafes and convenience stores, but they are really easy to make at home. Choose one type of fruit or several kinds (just be sure it is fresh and ripe), then layer the pieces with sweetened whipped cream between thick slices of fluffy milk bread. How the cross section looks after you cut the sandwich depends on how you arrange the fruit. Search the Internet for other ideas and get as creative as you like.
