Q. Do you have a unique sandwich idea? I prefer healthy sandwiches (no bologna), but I'm getting bored with my usuals. What are some of your ideas to add variety to my lunch sandwiches? Different ideas for breads? ingredients? types of mustard? combinations of ingredients?

I already enjoy turkey w/ swiss, cheese, cranberry & stuffing ... another favorite is a good slice of baquette, w/ artichoke hearts, brie cheese, and toasted almonds, broiled til warm and gooey.
Wow, some great recipes so far! Things that have caught my eye are the olive spread and grilled vegies; the tofu; the Sharon sandwich; Calif chicken; tom, basil, mozzerella; and chicken w/ basil, etc.

I do enjoy PB& banana, I'll have to try w/ strawberry slices :-)

Tuna w/ BBQ sauce? what kind of bbq sauce?

Keep the ideas/recipes coming, and thanks!


Answer
grilled chicken breast
pesto sauce mixed with mayo
roasted red peppers
red onion, thinly sliced
provolone cheese
on herbed foccacia or ciabatta bread, or even in a pita

Then, if you have a grill (better yet, a panini grill), grill the completed sandwich until the cheese starts to melt and the bread gets crusty.

I think I have to get out of the food section. LoL. Drool =P

What are possible ways to make the peanut butter and jelly sandwich better?

It's just such a fantastic sandwich; I can hardly imagine trying to make it better. I have tried using toasted bread and was quite satisfied, and have merely pondered using pretzel bread or adding bananas. What ideas do you have?


Answer
Grilled Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich
Servings: 1

This is peanut butter and jelly with a twist. The kids will thank you for them

2 teaspoons butter
2 slices white bread 1 teaspoon peanut butter
2 teaspoons any flavor fruit jelly

Heat griddle or skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Spread peanut butter on unbuttered side of one slice of bread, and jelly on the other. Place one slice, buttered side down on the griddle. Top with other slice, so that peanut butter and jelly are in the middle.

Cook for 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown, and heated through.

Super Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich
Servings: 1

A little twist to your everyday peanut butter and jelly sandwich

3 slices bread
2 tablespoons fruit preserves, any flavor
2 tablespoons peanut butter

Toast 1 bread slice, allow to cool. Spread one side of each of the two remaining slices with preserves. Spread both sides of the toasted slice with peanut butter. Form a sandwich with the toasted slice in the center.

==================
Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich
Yield: 1 sandwich

After years of experimentation, I have finally come upon the best tasting (and healthiest) way to satisfy a PB&J craving AND keep my kids healthy. Don't leave out the secret ingredient or it won't be the same. I guessimating the measurements so feel free to adjust to your taste.

2 slices whole wheat bread ( preferably soft)
1 teaspoon butter, the secret ingredient ( I use Smart Balance)
1 tablespoon peanut butter ( I use organic smooth)
2 teaspoons strawberry jam ( I use Trader Joe's low sugar)

Spread a half teaspoon of butter on each slice of bread. Spread one slice with peanut butter. Swirl jam into peanut butter. Cover with other slice of bread. Devour with a glass of milk!

=====================

Grilled Peanut Butter, Jelly and Banana Sandwich
Serves 4 sandwiches

8 slices good quality white bread
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup peanut butter, smooth or crunchy
1/2 cup grape jelly
2 ripe bananas, sliced

Butter the bread slices on 1 side with butter and place them butter side down. Spread 4 slices with peanut butter and top with the banana slices. Spread the remaining slices with jelly and put them, jelly side down, on top of the bananas. Press them gently to flatten them slightly.

Place each sandwich on a preheated panini press and grill until the bread is toasted, about 5 minutes. Alternately, preheat a dry cast iron or non stick pan. Place the sandwich in the pan and weight it down with another pan or a clean brick wrapped in foil. Grill 5 minutes, turn the sandwich over, re-weight it, and grill for another 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

========================

Pan-Fried Peanut Butter Jelly Sandwich for Picky Eaters

2 tablespoons sugar
1 ½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
8 slices white bread
6 tablespoons favorite jam
6 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

Serves: 4 kids or 2 adults

In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon.

Spread the butter on one side of each bread slice. Flip the remaining slices over and spread them with the jam. Flip the remaining slices over and spread them with the peanut butter. Sandwich together the jam slices and the peanut butter slices, keeping the buttered sides of the bread facing out.

Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sandwiches and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the tops. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown. Flip the sandwiches over and sprinkle the tops with cinnamon sugar. Continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown.

Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and cut into quarters. Serve, with the crusts on or off, depending on your child's preference.

Peace.
