PB&J Makeover


Not all PB&J sandwiches were created nutritionally equal. It all depends on the quality of the ingredients that you use. If you use white bread, corn syrup-filled peanut butter and refined sugar-filled jelly, the result would be a sandwich that will skyrocket your blood sugar, promotes fat storage and leaves you feeling hungry a short time later. However, if you make this recipe, with sprouted grain bread, true peanut butter made from one ingredient: peanuts, and fruit preserves that are naturally sweetened with fruit juice rather than sugar, then the result would be a nutritionally dense food that would promote stable blood sugar levels and provide you with hours of sustained energy. What you need Servings: 1 Sprouted grain bread 1 Tablespoon pure peanut butter (no added sugar or corn syrup) 1 Tablespoon natural fruit spread (no added sugar or corn syrup) ½ of a banana, sliced Instructions 1. Spread one piece of bread with peanut butter and the other with fruit spread. Line one side with the sliced bananas and sandwich it. 2. In a grill pan over medium heat, grill each side until grill marks appear and the sandwich is warmed. Nutrition One serving equals: 380 calories, 8.7g fat, 53g carbohydrate, 9g fiber, and 13.2g protein.
