    Why, Oh Why is everyone straying from the original recipe?!?! Why is everyone hating on Grape jelly????
    Did you say if it must be Crunchy or Creamy?
    Who the heck is putting Pickles on it????

    I MUST emphasize that is only a perfect PB&J sandwich when the PB has been smeared on the entire bread...no leaving corners uncovered!!!! Hate That!!!

    May I have wine with mine?

    Yes! I almost wrote to make sure you spread it all the way to edges. I guess I should have. I had a boyfriend who would carefully leave a frame of bread around the peanut butter. What the hell, man?! I didn't specify creamy or crunchy, since I like both now. I'm almost growed up!

    ETA yes to the wine, but you know it has to be red. Unless you're like CAWFEE_TAWK using orange marmalade, then white.

    Next time try substituting the PB with PB2. It's just as good as PB and none of the digesting oils. And less calories. Also low on sugar. I always choose a lower sugar version.

    That stuff is only good for sprinkling on my ice cream. :tongue:

    Have y'all tried PB2 as a peanut butter substitute? I was skeptical about it but since it only cost $5 I thought I would give it a try. It is YUMMMMMY! I have made the fiber one freezer cookies with it and added it to smoothies. The cheapest I found online was from pureformulas.com but some grocery stores sell it. If you do order from pureformulas they give you a $10 voucher for your next order so I ordered 2 more canisters of PB2 with mine! :)

    PB2 is not "just as good" as PB. Stop your blasphemy.

    Sorry it's either Orange Marmalade and extra crunchy on oatnut

    Or nothing!
    ^^^This. I thought I was the only one. Thank you for being human. :)

    Don't get yourself kicked out of the group by messing up ice cream. Lol

    Ha! Noooooo! I bought it for when I want peanut butter taste, but don't have room for the real thing. I would never, and I mean never, mix it with water and try to pass it off as peanut butter. No sir.

    Try sweet chili sauce (like for spring rolls) instead of jelly. Sweet and spicy. YUM!

    So simple! Here are the ingredients, and you can NOT stray from them or you just ruin it. No arguing, dammit!

    2 slices of Martin's potato bread (whole wheat is acceptable)
    2 T Trader Joe's natural peanut butter (because perfect)
    2 T Welch's grape jelly

    Put your two pieces of bread on your plate (separate them first), then using a knife you spread the peanut butter on one slice of bread, and the jelly on the other. Put the two together, and voila! Make sure the jelly is on the bottom slice. Don't ask questions. You can add a glass of cold milk, too. Or whatever you like, really. I'm easy like that. :wink: If you don't have Martin's available in your area, then I will shed a tear for you.

    You had me until grape jelly. ugh. Strawberry all the way!

    For the visual learners. I like to make mine with more p than j.

    Can I substitute honey for the jelly please. With a banana and a glass of milk on the side. :love:

    I like the Trader Joe's chia and flaxseed peanut butter myself, along with their strawberry preserves.....

    Grape jelly is only good for mixing with cocktail sauce and using as a dip for meatballs. Never on a PB&J! Raspberry or sour cherry jam for me please. :tongue:

    I use the same recipe.
    However, once assembled, then I GRILL IT. Just like grilled cheese, y'all. It. Is. To. Die For.
    Trust me, try it.
