Alright so every once in awhile I like a peanut butter and jelly sandich. The only problem I have with it is that bread is disgusting and ruins it. Does anyone have a suggestion for something fantastic to use that I'm not aware of-like rice cakes or something?

    Well, peanut butter and jelly roll ups on a tortilla are nice. Maybe pita bread?

    alot of times if I don't want the extra calories from the bread I'll just mix the pb and jelly together and eat it like that.

    I put peanut butter on a tortilla shell with a strip of jelly and roll it up like a burrito. It's the only way my kids will eat it.

    Or you can just mix the pb and jelly in a bowl. I do that with nutella and kraft's natural pb. So amazing x)

    Two spoons; one spoon of peanut butter, and one spoon of jelly. Repeat (only once or twice).

    Sometimes when I want a treat I put the tortilla on the stove for a second and let it get a little crispy and than I proceed to put a very small about of peanut butter (because it melts) and than add just a smidge of honey. So yummy and perfect sweetness.

    Funny.

    I haven't had one of these in a long time. The bad thing for me is that they need to have potato chips with them. Bad bad. :)

    I like to use tortillas, pita bread, bagels or english muffins, I never use bread for this kind of sandwich.

    I can neither confirm, nor deny, these accusations.

    Magic pop! It is like a freshly made rice cake... only way better. Generally they are sold at healthfood type grocery stores and are made in store. Hate regular rice cakes but love these.

    This sounds good. I'll have to look for it next time I'm near a healthfood store.

    Hmm, tried changing the breads? I see pita has been mentioned, tortillas are kind of weird w/ PB&J's...toasted english muffins, fresh baked rolls from a deli? Biscuits? I dunno, they all sound good!

    I can see if they have anything decent at the store here. If they have anything close to a bakery here I haven't seen it.

    I'm not a structural engineer, but I'm certain that, without the bread, it is an unsound model to pursue. That and the communist thing. Don't do it! PB & J, on bread, for America!

    Find me some good bread and I will, until then I guess I'm SOL if that's the way you want it to be.

    I actually wouldn't mind one now either. You're welcome! Go eat one.
