um...does it still taste good without the zest and mint?

I have made these at least 5 times since it was posted and can't stop buying out of season and transported from CA to NY strawberries (or further...egads) to make this. Next stop, with more locally sourced apples and with a sprinkling of cinnamon and cardamom.

I am so glad you are enjoying this sandwich. Apples, cardamon and cinnamon...I might just have to make that tomorrow. That combination would be great!

Thanks!

My kids actually THANK me when I put this sandwich in their lunch box. It's so flavorful with the orange zest, honey and fresh mint. Plus, the cream cheese does not make the bread soggy!

Reminiscent of my cream cheese and jelly sandwiches, but this is a lot nicer!
