Now, wasn't that clever. hee hee.
So peanut butter and jelly is such a staple sandwich for kids (and my husband), not to mention cheap! End of the month and we were scrounging around yesterday at lunch. I almost gave in....but found an alternative right in front of my eyes.
Bananas.
YUM! Elvis was right, kids! Toast two pieces of whole grain bread (ours loaded with flax mill), smear on a conservative portion of PB - make sure its natural!!!!! Do not get the regular PB that is loaded with extra sodium, sugar and preservatives! Then slice up that banana and sandwich the sucker in! So good.
Emma and I paired our sandwiches up with a fresh plum on the side and woo-la a great lunch.
So after eating I checked out the label on the jelly jar. Second ingredient high fructose corn syrup, third was yet more corn syrup, and then of course there were artificial ingredients, acid, and last but not least sodium citrate. So glad we went with the banana!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thinking about using strawberries next,
Jill
