Simple Snack - Strawberry Peanut Butter Sammie

Strawberry Peanut Butter Sammie & Baby Carrots

Like me, I know a lot of you are short on time.  I often find myself saying "If only there were more hours in a day!".  Well, I wanted to share with you this SUPER simple low calorie snack idea that anyone (even kids) can make when pressed for time!

We're taking it back, old school style, with a slight twist on the staple PB&J sandwich ;)

Ingredients:
- 1/2 of an Arnold's Multi-Grain Sandwich Thin

This heart-healthy meal contains 7 grams of protein and is under 200 calories total.  It is a great balanced meal that incorporates essential protein, good carbohydrates, fruits, and vegetables.
