Chrissy Teigen Says Meghan Markle’s Jam Is ‘One of the Best Bites’ She’s Had All Year

Chrissy Teigen is one of the lucky celebrities who received a jar of Meghan Markle’s new jam.

Earlier this month, the first product from Markle’s new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, was announced as strawberry jam. Teigen shared a video of herself making a tasty-looking sandwich for her entire family using the fruity condiment.

“We jam!! This might have been one of the best appetizers we’ve had all year – all we used is some rustic bread, salted butter, triple cream brie, thick cut bacon, and some @americanrivieraorchard jam! she wrote in the caption. “Jamming” by Bob Marley & the Wailers plays throughout the clip.

The melty sandwich wasn’t just for herself; the meal was also approved by her family.

“Took about 8 minutes total and made us happy all weekend. 🤍” she concluded the caption.

In the video, Teigen takes fans through her cooking process, starting (of course!) by spreading the jam on the crusty bread and then frying the bacon.
