Extreme Makeover - PB&J Edition


I know what ya'll are thinking...how in the world can you possibly have an extreme makeover of something as ubiquitous as a peanut butter and jelly sandwich? Why, make all the components from scratch, of course! :)
I started with a lovely piece of lightly toasted 100% Whole Wheat bread, then I added a layer of homemade Peanut Butter, crunchy for me please, finally, I topped it all off with some of our favorite Carrot Cake jam/conserve (thanks, Michelle, for the recipe). To complete this lovely breakfast, just add a glass of icy cold, fresh, raw goat milk! YUM!!


Toasting the bread is optional but doing so makes the peanut butter all melty good. :) Talk about comfort food!

    Yum... you are making my mouth water for carrot cake jam. Never had it but want to try it.

    I make my own almond butter sometimes.

    PB&J sandwiches are something we don't eat here in Australia. I tried them first time I visited the USA and it was quite an intriguing taste...
