Raisin Sandwich

When building Meal Plan 1, there were enough leftovers for a friend to issue a challenge to make an 8th day. The challenge was accepted and this delectable morsel is part of that 8th day.

It was quite fun trying to use up the odd bits and pieces of this and that and make them into a proper days eating!

How to make a raisin sandwich

raisin sandwich - inner with sugar

Butter 2 pieces of bread on both sides per person.

Sprinkle a little sugar on 1 side of one piece.

Sprinkle 15g raisins on and put the 2nd piece of bread on top, pressing down.

Fry gently in a frying pan until golden, pressing down every now and then. Flip over and repeat on the other side.

Enjoy immediately!

 

What variations can I make?

  • Omit the sugar and add grated carrot
  • Omit the sugar and add grated carrot and use an olive oil, mint and white wine vinegar dressing
  • Add cream cheese
  • Add carrot and cream cheese
  • Spread the bread with a little peanut butter
  • Add slivers of apple
  • Add strips of celery
  • Add a tiny bit of jam or marmalade
