I was just thinking . . . a beginning that brings fear to most who know me
.. . . but tonight I was assembling peanut butter sandwiches. Finally, it is spring here and being outside is more fun than cooking anything. I thought: peanut butter plus strawberry jam might be good. Peanut butter plus sliced fresh strawberries might be even better. What is your notion of the ultimate peanut butter sandwich? What bread and what else? Let your hair down and don't try to impress us. We were impressed years ago. Polly |

Used to eat American cheese on them. |

Creamy peanut butter and strawberry or peach preserves. The sandwich
must be cut along both diagonals to make four little triangles. I like the occasional peanut butter and banana sandwich, too. Tara |

Maybe with a > fine wine ... or napalm. No, no, no... it's bananas (a pretty darned good combo) OR pickles (which is an acquired taste, but once you have it - you wonder how you ever had negative thoughts on the subject). Not sure if you need to pair sweet or salty peanut butter with one or the other. To be perfectly honest - I never gave it much thought when I ate those things, because I was just a kid at the time. -- Good Food. Good Friends. Good Memories. |

Polly My 3 favorites are toasted white or multi grain bread, spread the peanut butter on as soon as they pop out so it melts. Eat it while still warm #2 take the above and add some good jam or preserves on top #3 No jam, but a thin slice or 2 of swiss cheese All 3 options are just one slice of toast...open sandwich snacks.

Polly When I was growing up, the ultimate PB&J was crunchy PB and Concord grape jelly on untoasted white "balloon" bread, cut on a diagonal, precisely from one corner to the opposite corner. None of those tilted diagonals for us. Sometimes we would substitute strawberry or pinecot jam, other times we would stir some Karo and PB together, then spread that on white bread. PB and sliced bananas were rare, but welcomed, sometimes with honey. On very special occasions there would be PB and banana on toasted raisin bread. We never had "The Elvis": PB, bacon and overripe banana on buttered white toast. These days, my favorite is crunchy PB, lightly salted, on multigrain bread, the darker and chewier, the better. No sweetener for the PB. One last mention: PB on hot toasted marble rye, hot sauce (I prefer Mezzetta's Habanero sauce) and a hard fried egg sandwich. I really like this. |

Polly How about a dense bread like pumpernickel and celery slices (the long way) piled on top of a thick layer of peanut butter. -- ღ.¸¸.œ«*¨`*œ¶ Cheryl |
