KL's ORGANIC LATE-NIGHT SMACK SNACK

Had the munchies tonight so I put together a quick "late-night smack" snack!

It's one (1) slice of organic sourdough rye bread right out of the toaster with raw almond butter spread across it and fresh fruit on the side (or right down the center, haha)!

I lightly sprinkled on ground cinnamon and pure sea salt to add a "sweet & salty" type of taste!

Bout time I rinsed and cleaned the strawberries, I remembered having a few ripened bananas that would've went nice on top of almond butter with toasted rye but, oh well... I really like this recipe too!

Try it!

Ingredients:
Raw Almond Butter
Sourdough Rye (French Meadow)
Sea Salt
Ground Cinnamon
Fresh Strawberry
