I admit, this one had me at "peanut butter". I typically love toasted peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and figured: this has got to be good!! Since there was no original source (which we all know if you're following me it drives me crazy) So I assume it's like a grilled cheese sandwich.

I lightly buttered one side of two pieces of toast. Then I added peanut butter and a dab of jelly and put it on the griddle.



and cooked both sides until it was a nice golden brown



Results:
It was good.  A little soggy in the centers despite my attempts of putting a light coat of butter on the toast. Was it worth the extra calories and time? Not really. I love melty peanut butter and I get the same effects (and crunchier toast) if I just use my toaster.

(if you look close to the top bite mark you can see it even looks a little soggy)

Alrighty, this morning I decided to try to make the girls lunches a little more...interesting. They aren't always in the mood for Peanut butter or Jelly sandwiches, but it had been a while and I figured they weren't awake to argue.
 
I started by taking 2 pieced of bread and rolling then flat with my rolling pin.



 Then I removed the crust and added  jelly to one and peanut butter to the other. Now this is normally where people would put them together and then roll it up- not us. Not only did I think two rolled slices would be a bit much for their tiny mouths, but one only likes jelly the other, peanut butter. So I rolled them separately and sliced them with a knife.


 Here is hoping they like them! Mine don't look as fancy as the original posters photos because they are thinner and less peanut butter and jelly ( I also never photo shop). I also put Goldfish and grapes in their lunches today with my our home made lunch box organizer .Oh and I wouldn't add too much jelly- when you roll it it likes to seep out!
