Peanut Butter Jelly Time!


Due to my hectic schedule during the week, I am not able to blog, but believe me we have definitely been eating!  So there is a backlog of meals for me to post, and this one is quickly going to the top even though I literally just finished eating it - because it was just THAT good!

Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches have been my favorite for as long as I can remember - I don't even know if I could actually function without them.  It killed me when I studied abroad last year and PB&J's were not staples in other countries - even finding peanut butter is a struggle!  Maybe that says something about our obesity epidemic?  Well, this recipe will definitely not aid in increasing the obesity rate of our country, on the contrary this will help you meet your weight goal, or maintain where you are while indulging yourself in the most delicious Peanut Butter and Jelly creation I have had.  Period.

Chocolate Covered Banana English Muffin French Toast




The other morning, I saw a recipe for banana split french toast - which then sparked the creation of this recipe.  We did not use whipped cream or a cherry which made their recipe 'split', so ours was simply chocolate-covered ;).  The use of english muffins in french toast recipes allows a more moist end product, more similar to brioche bread than regular sliced bread would be.  They do not seem to soak up as much coating, but definitely still hold the flavor of the banana which is a delicious addition!
