Today is National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day. With all of the peanut butter recalls, I have found myself enjoying
SunButter, quite a bit. Which, is a totally amazing product made in good old North Dakota. For those of you with some sort of tie to ND, you should buy it and support a local business. Perhaps, others of you have found a new nut butter to replace good old peanut butter, almond or cashew? However, since it is National PB & J day, I think I will pull out the good old peanut butter. I am very excited because I have chokecherry jelly in the fridge, which is my favorite jelly to have with peanut butter. This particular jar, I had my mom send to me from the Fargo's Farmers Market, since chokecherry jelly/jam/syrup is very elusive and hard to find. So, how do you
pb & j? Grape, strawberry, guava, raspberry, creamy, crunchy?
Crunchy peanut butter for sure... but instead of a PB&J I would do PB on apple slices. PB & J's were too sweet for me growing up but I loved PB and bananas or PB and apples.
ReplyDeleteWith blueberry jam of course!
ReplyDeleteAnd you gotta put the nut/seed butter on both pieces of bread so it doesn't get soggy from the jelly.
Of course, peanut butter is rarely seen around here these days. Craig, the girls, and I have abandoned peanut butter and are often found enjoying SunButter - everyone's favorite after school snack!
I'm a fan of almond butter and blackstrap molasses sammies myself! (Thanks to Becca for introducing me to PB/brown sugar sandwiches, which have evolved into this.) The heartier the bread, the better. And to go totally old school, bananas can be a great addition when you're in the mood.
