Chicken sandwich: the works

I don't remember where I got this idea but it works and so I include it even though it is just a sandwich. The trick to this sandwich is: cream cheese, jam, lots of vegetables and love. I generally don't like sandwiches but the jam and cream cheese make it moist and yummy.

YUMMY...

Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 slices of gf bread
• 1 tbsp cream cheese
• 1 tbsp raspberry jam
• Some Cooked Shredded chicken or deli meat

Directions:

1. Toast the bread
2. Spread cream cheese on one slice and jam on other slice.
3. Assemble sandwich with chicken or deli meat and piled high with vegetables.
4. Smother it with love and eat it.
