Recipe and photo by my 16-year-old niece, Kylie Campbell. We kept many of the ingredient amounts loose, as the bread size you use may vary, and everyone has differing opinions on how much peanut butter and jelly to use!

Serves: 2 sandwiches
Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons non-hydrogenated dairy-free margarine (we used Earth Balance) + additional for slathering
  • 4 slices wheat or gluten-free sandwich bread (we used Sourdough Multi-Grain)
  • Peanut butter
  • Jelly (your choice of flavor)
  • 2 glasses or 2 single-serving packages of almond milk
Instructions
  1. Melt 1 teaspoon of the margarine in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. While that is warming up, slather one side of each bread slice with some dairy-free margarine - just lightly, no need to use too much.
  3. On the opposite side of two slices, spread on some peanut butter, and on the opposite side of the remaining two slices, spread on as much jelly as you like. Match them up to make two peanut butter jelly sandwiches with margarine on the outsides.
  4. Once hot, place one sandwich in the skillet, and cook until it is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and lightly brown the other side. Serve to the hungry person next to you, and repeat the process with the second sandwich for you.
  5. Serve the sandwiches with some almond milk goodness to wash it down.
Notes
Sweet Version: Sprinkle the "buttered" sides of the bread with cinnamon and sugar before cooking for a cinnamon toast sandwich. We like this version without the jelly, but either way can be tasty.
