Skinny Elvis Sandwiches

8 slices whole wheat bread 

½ cup almond butter (creamy or crunchy)

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

1 pint fresh strawberries, cleaned and sliced

1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine OR cooking spray

Place a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. If not using butter or margarine, spray pan with cooking spray.

Slather four slices of bread with 2 tablespoons of almond butter each and sprinkle with several dashes of ground cinnamon. Layer strawberries on top of almond butter and top sandwich with an additional slice of bread.

If using butter or margarine, lightly brush both sides of the sandwich with the melted butter or margarine using a pastry brush and then place sandwich in the heated skillet.

Grill for several minutes on each side, until bread is golden brown and almond butter is melted.

Yield: 4 sandwiches
