Grilled Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich

This is a damn good sandwich, its loosely based on a Cooking Light recipe, adapted to what I had on hand. Peanut butter is great because its super filling, has two grams of fiber per serving plus its been found to lower LDL (bad cholesterol) and triglycerides.

Grilled Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich

2 slices potato bread

2 medium banana (~7″ long)

1 tablespoon Polaner Strawberry All Fruit jam

1 tablespoon chunky peanut butter

1 teaspoon honey (just drizzle some on, close enough)

1 tablespoon Smart Balance butter replacement spread

  1. In a non-stick skillet get a half tablespoon of the smart balance spread warming up over medium heat.
  2. Put the peanut butter on one side of the bread, drizzle on the honey.
  3. Cut banana in half then slice the halves length-wise into three pieces and place on peanut butter side.
  4. Spread jam on the plain piece of bread and put on top of your sandwich.
  5. Place in pan, while one side is cooking butter the piece of bread that’s facing up.
  6. Grill both sides until browned and warmed through.
