Health and fertility benefits of Double-Decker Coffin Sandwiches

Nuts are a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity. Walnuts are low on the glycemic index. What’s more, they also lower the glycemic index of other foods that you eat in conjunction with these nuts. Any kind of nuts provide a healthy source of fat and a great way to encourage PCOS weight loss. Basil is an excellent stress reliever, and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.

Ingredients

2 cups fresh basil, packed
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup walnut oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup Parmesan, grated
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

For the pesto: Pulse together the basil, walnuts, walnut oil and garlic in a food processor until combined. Add the Parmesan and olive oil and pulse again. For the sandwiches: Cut the pumpernickel into 1/2-inch slices, and then into coffin shapes. On each slice of bread, spread a layer of mayo, a layer of pesto, a sprinkling of almonds, alfalfa sprouts, a layer of apples, and shaved Cheddar. Place another coffin-shaped bread slice on top and repeat for another layer. Top off with a final coffin slice.
