Healthier PB and J

By Suzanne Holman • July 31st, 2007

Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches can actually be a healthy meal choice.
Ingredients:
whole grain bread
peanut butter made from JUST peanuts….no added ingredients
sliced strawberries
raisins

Spread peanut butter on the bread and add raisins and/or sliced strawberries.
Instead of lots of extra sugary jelly or peanut butter, you now have all natural ingredients.
This was taste-tested by two-year-old Thomas today at our little lunch on the cool, sunny deck.
He enjoyed adding the sliced strawberries by himself.
He liked having the sandwich cut into squares about the size of the sliced strawberries.

These little guys love to get out the pots and pans and utensils and whip up some
“invisible” pancakes, chocolate chip cookies, or cake. Sometimes they help with the real processes also with varying degrees of success and mess!
