Peanut Butter and ... ?

[shel]

Fresh ground peanut butter on my favorite whole wheat bread (Vital Vittles) is a favorite sandwich. I'll sometimes add banana, or possibly shredded carrot, maybe even some thin fruit slices or orange zest, some nuts like sunflower seed. I may try some chile peppers later today. What other combinations can you think of? I'm looking for some new ideas to kick up a peanut butter on whole wheat sandwich.

my brother in law told me about his fave sandwich and i reeled at the idea of it, but crunchy peanut butter and sliced, sweet pickled beetroot with a light sprinkle of salt is an amazing sandwich...promise

I'm a sucker for crunchy PB with wipped honey.

I also dig crunchy PB with bacon and jalepeno.

Ditto the honey.

Could try it with alfalfa sprouts....grated celery...mung bean sprouts

Bacon... bacon... bacon. What else would a nice (Reform) Jewish girl ask for? Peanut butter and lettuce sandwiches were a favorite in my school lunch box.

Let's see - the Ultmate Savoury PB sandwich - from above replies - crunchy PB, lettuce, bacon, chillies, sprouts.

When I was a kid, Mom made "Hawaiian Sandwiches" which were always a fave-

Toasted whole wheat with peanut butter
a slice of pineapple
mild cheddar

then melted in the toaster oven

Yum

Thanks for the interesting ideas gang!

Hmmm ... I like oatmeal. Wnder how oatmeal with a bit of peanut butter stirred in might be.

Besides PB and bacon, I also like an open-faced PB and raisins or PB and sliced tomato.

When I eat a banana I like to put a little peanut butter on before each bite.

Pancakes with peanut butter and molasses syrup, yum.

Peanut butter on whole wheat bread, warmed in the microwave.

Or just a big spoon of plain peanut butter.

The peanut butter itself has to be made with just peanuts and salt, otherwise I don't care for it.

Indonesians make yummy peanut sauces for lots of things, some with hot chiles, some mild. Hot red chiles go great with peanuts. Gado-gado dressing is used on salad and it's not hot--I had a variation with cashew butter as well as peanut, yum. They take some of the oil out of the peanuts for their sauces.

ok, we are missing the obvious... all I ate all the way through high school (a hundred years ago) was peanut butter & fluff toasted so it all melts together & has the crunch of the toast... pure heaven! Why don't I eat that anymore? Oh yeah, the sugar, fat & calories.
Sounds like tonights dinner though!

Tessa - you beat me to it! Crunchy PB with chopped dates - yummers!!! I just remembered that one, scrolled thru, and you already got it...too quick for me! Can add a bit of homey to that too.

My kids went thru a stage where they liked smooth PB with sliced processed cheese <shudder>...they grew out of it
