Cooking for Slackers: Peanut Butter Salad Sandwich

Slackers love sandwiches. Quick, cheap and idiot proof, what’s not to like? Peanut butter sandwiches are a favourite and they’re healthy.

Peanuts are packed with nutrients. They contain all 20 amino acids (the building blocks of protein), fiber, vitamins, minerals, and heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. They also have health-boosting compounds like resveratrol and flavonoids, which have antioxidant properties.1

Smearing peanut butter on toast is the Slacker’s preferred option. But even Slackers want variety– as long as it’s quick and easy. (Five minutes maximum.)

Ingredients

Two slices of thick sliced bread

Smooth peanut butter

A tomato

Cucumber

Technique

Smear peanut butter onto one slice of bread. Don’t hold back make it nice and thick

Thin slice the tomato and cucumber

Cover peanut butter with them in two layers

Put the other slice of bread on top pressing down firmly, making a closed sandwich

The juice of the tomato and the crispness of the cucumber makes it luscious

Outcome

A spectacular sandwich, which will see you through the day for pennies.
