Best PB&J “recipe”?

[Anonymous]

Best bread, peanut butter and jelly? I’m not talking about anything fancy just literally how you make yours if your kids love them. I didn’t grow up eating them so the ones I make never look as good as DS’s friends! Just trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong ...

I make the BEST PB&J.
Sara Lee honey wheat bread
Jif Peanut Butter (creamy, not crunchy. Simply Jif is OK)
Smuckers strawberry Jam

Take a butter knife full of peanut butter (about a heaping tablespoon) and spread it evenly on one side of bread. Don’t put too much as you’re not making a choke sandwich.
Next, on the other slice of bread spread a teaspoon of the strawberry jelly. You want to cover the entire slice, but not soak it. Wet pb&j is a no no.
Then take the peanut putter side and the jelly side and make them kiss. A nice gentle kiss - not like in old movie where they’re trying to chip each other’s teeth.
Finally, with your butter knife, cut the sandwich in either a diagonal or rectangle. If you’re feeling spicy, you can do squares or little triangles (NOT for beginners).

Voila! Your kids will love you.

If you can’t do this on your own, buy one, off menu, at Potbelly.

Wonder white bread, peanut butter, plain or crunchy, your favorite jam or jelly. Spread peanut butter on one slice of bread and jelly on other. Put slices together and cut in half! Yummy. Favorite childhood sandwich and still eat today!

Toast an english muffin, spread crunchy pb on one half, spread blueberry bon maman on the other. Cut in half and lick melty stuff that comes out asap. (We generally do breakfast pb&j and then have kids change from PJs into clothes after since they do have classmates with food allergies.) Adding an underlayer of butter to the warm version doesn't hurt either.

I think it's pretty hard to go wrong if you have decent bread and decent peanut butter.
