Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich

Markguns

1) get some whole wheat bread. preferably fresh.
2) get some peanut butter. preferably extra crunchy.
3) get some jelly. preferably grape or strawberry. preserves or jam will work too.
4) take a single slice of bread and place it on plate.
5) dip a tablespoon into the peanut butter twice, and each time spread the tablespoon of peanut butter on the slice of bread until completely covered.
6) take a second piece of bread and hold it in your hand.
7) dip a tablespoon into the jelly twice, and each time spread the tablespoon of jelly on the new slice of bread until completely covered.
8) put the piece of bread with jelly on it together with the piece of bread with peanut butter on it such that the jelly and peanut butter are in full contact with each other.
9) put away the peanut butter, jelly, and bread and clean up after yourself
10) enjoy.

Wrong the peanut butter goes on both slices with jam or jelly in the middle... that way it doesn't get mushy :bigsmile:

OMG Peanut butter & pickle sandwiches are heaven

you really need to toast the bread, so it starts to melt the peanut butter.

Great, now I want a PBJ sandwich!

It's Adam's Natural Crunchy (I could eat a jar of that stuff in one sitting) and strawberry Polaner All-Fruit for me.

They were absofrickenlutely delicious, and within my calorie goal today.

Smooth peanut butter and marmalade or raw honey. Carbs and protein and grams and whatever. It is yummy. Therefore it goes into my mouth.

currlee

Fresh ground almond butter with banana slices and honey drizzled over the bananas. Mush both sides together and wait for the honey to creep thru the bread(this part is optional, but highly recommended). So special!! You can sprinkle a little cinnamon on the honey, pre-mushing, for a little something extra. I wish I ate that for dinner.....

I tried the smuckers sugar free.... It was so gross I've just cut my jam allowance to 1 time a week at most. More like twice a month. Not for the cals but trying to be more selective about sugar.

my brother loved this when we were kids, in fact he still does. I always thought it was a bit strange, but he claims its a nice balance of salty and sweet when you put PB with dill pickle.

princessnik7

My vote is Honey PB and Apple Jelly, (had grape jelly overkill in college, now only buy it for my daughter)

princessnik7

Another important tip: DO NOT substitute Goober's PB and jelly in the same jar...*shudders*

I can't stand that stuff and my daughter begs me to buy it yuck!

princessnik7

Here's a fun one. My husband used to eat peanut butter and Miracle Whip sandwiches as a kid. I do not allow Miracle Whip in the house, so he is SOL...

my college roommate and I constantly bickered about Mayo versus Miracle Whip, in her mind it was all the same. :noway: we always ended up with a small jar of each Mayo for me Miracle whip for her.

Best post I have read all day! Love it.

Sometimes there is nothing better than a PB&J and a glass of whole milk.

Grape jelly = fail.

Who can really just eat 1T of peanut butter? You are better off with 1/2 a sandwich....

Thanks to all ...now craving PBJ sandwich!

pro tip: never put ketchup on a PB&J.

dark_angel1554

Don't overlook PB&Banana! Get your serving of fruit without the added sugar of jelly or jam!

My personal favorite is PB, banana, and marshmallow fluff - the Fluffanananutter!

holy crap, that sounds so good! I never thought of that......I LOVE peanut butter and banana

klp1017

Nix the strawberry jelly for fresh strawberries. So much better.

skyekeeper

I love Peter Pan whipped peanut butter with strawberry or blackberry spreadable fruit.

I also love almond butter and they are all great with honey instead of spreadable fruit/jelly/jam....

Love the peanut butter/almond butter banana. I put mine in a wrap. Spread your peanut butter or almond butter on your wrap and then wrap it up with the banana and Enjoy!

These are very filling and satisfying as well.

worldsbestauntie

Ok Now I am craving a toasted PB&J with ketchup chips. On problem is I have no chips! (and probably shouldn't)

a_mandolin_

Can I make this with 0 calorie miracle noodles, 0 calorie walden farms stuff and 0 calorie stevia, and maybe rub some cherry chapstick on it?

Word

PS - Peanut butter, banana AND marshmallow fluff = died and gone to heaven, where the clouds are made of marshmallow fluff...
