Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich: noun; a cheap, lasting, delicious alternative to dorm food. Well, that might not be the official definition, but it is my definition. Yes, this American staple has been a key meal during my freshman year. It is the perfect pre-workout snack/meal or just a nice break from the monotonous dining hall food. But even with a combo as delicious as PB&J, it can get boring. So during a recent road trip, I decided to infuse some new flavor into this combo. I call it the PBNHS&J sandwich! That’s too confusing, isn’t it? I’ll just call it Awesomeness on Bread!
During my 14-hour car ride from Tucson, AZ to Boulder, CO I became pretty hungry. Not wanting to stop for food (and add increase the drive time), I looked around the backseat for things to eat. I first saw Peanut Butter, Jelly, and Wheat Bread. Thinking that would suffice I made the traditional PB&J sandwich. But then I saw some Nutella, one of my favorite foods/spreads. Obviously I had to add that. Oh, and honey is a delicious addition as well. So I lathered some of that on too. Then, just as I was about to slap the two slices of bread together, I saw some fresh strawberries. Yup, I put those on the sandwich too! Voila! EPIC. SANDWICH. TIME. That was quite possibly the most delicious sandwich I have ever made! Trust me, getting creative with food combinations is important to surviving college. After six months of the same dorm food you have got to spice up meals somehow! Here’s a quick recap of the Awesomeness on Bread sandwich:
Peanut Butter+ Jelly+ Honey + Nutella + Fresh Strawberries + Wheat Bread = AWESOMENESS ON BREAD!
Enjoy your next sandwich!
