Grilled Peanut Butter Sandwiches

Submitted by Park Rangerette

"These were as common in my home growing up as grilled cheese -- we ate them with warm soups for quick lunches & easy meals. I didn't realize until I moved away from home that most people have never heard of a grilled peanut butter sandwich. Made just like grilled cheese sandwiches, they are also warm and gooey and so easy to make it's almost silly!"

The creamy peanut butter and sweet grape jelly, perfectly spread to the edges, created a harmonious balance of flavors that brought me right back to my childhood.

My dad makes these! I always liked them growing up, and now my husband likes them too. Thanks for reminding me about these sandwiches, I need to get my daughters to try them!

I've been making these for my daughter for years....she never did care for grilled cheese. The only difference is that we also add jam to the sandwich, and since I make several at a time, we use a cookie sheet in the oven. I like mine plain, but Joanna dips hers in chicken noodle soup before eating...weird !
