Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich

Hi Everyone, I hope you are doing well. I am on a mission to record all the seemingly mundane snacks and recipes that I make for my kids.

I think of it as recording it for my kids for when they get older and want to learn how I make something perhaps when they go to college or have kids of their own.

Often this type of food is really basic stuff but it's what my habit-loving kids like most right now.

I also know that many viewers of this blog love Peanut Butter and Jelly as a flavor in general and I have made several recipes in the past with that theme.

I even made a recipe page for Peanut Butter and Jelly recipes which I linked to below.

About the Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich (also called, PB&J)

Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches are a classic, All-American, sweet and savory sandwich with bread. It has peanut butter, either creamy or chunky in it. 

Traditionally, a PB&J will have grape jelly in it but you can have your favorite flavor in it. We also love strawberry, mixed berry, or raspberry in a PB&J as well.

We have a recipe for Homemade Peanut Butter on the blog if you want to make your own!

Jumprope App

I just joined a new app called Jumprope and it makes it really easy to make and share existing and new videos in a step-by-step format to teach people how to make a recipe by breaking it down into easy to follow steps with images and/or video.

Anyone can join Jumprope and start watching or creating videos. I will be creating more recipe videos for the app and I hope you want to follow me there!
