I’ve mentioned before how mean and hateful my husband is with all of that nonsense about me being “un-American.” Just because I’d never eaten meatballs, meatloaf, eggnog, oatmeal, or tomato soup doesn’t make me un-American. And who cares that we were married by the time I ate my first Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwich?
That’s not weird at all.
Okay. Yes, it is.
Mother? Father? Didn’t you love me at all? How could have allowed this to happen?
It’s alright, though. I’m taking the PB&J world by storm with this grilled version.
Seriously, have you ever tried grilling a PB&J before? It’s divine. Melty peanut butter, warm tart jelly, and crispy butter-coated bread? Yes, please. I’ll take three. Or maybe four, if no one is looking.
No recipe this time around, just make your normal PB&J (I recommend a yummy, seedless raspberry jam and smooth peanut butter) and then slather the outsides in butter and grill it up the same way you would a grilled cheese. Let it rest for a minute and then slice it in half and enjoy with a big ol’ glass of milk.

These are great. There is a restaurant in Old St Charles MO, that has a grilled PB&J and it is amazing. They also put theirs on a Cinnamon Raisin bread. Holy Cow good.

I love grilled pb&j sandwiches! Even better, in my opinion, are grilled pb & banana sandwiches. Can’t go wrong there!

Wow, you never had pb&j as a kid that’s something! I think that’s my middle son’s favorite food, he’s so picky, he eats pb&j or cereal. Love a grilled pb&j especially with raspberry jam. Glad you got your site back up!

I’m so glad your blog is up and running again! I was missing it for the past few days (haha sorry for stalking!). I never liked jelly, but PB&fluff is my favorite sandwich! And grilling them is now definitely on my to-do list!
