Winnie the Pooh Picnic Sandwiches

Submitted by Cookin Kit

"Don't Say, "Gross!" until you've tried them. Seriously, this is an amazing combinaton. My husband turned his nose up the first time I told him what kind of sandwich I was making him. He now requests them regularly. This recipe comes from the "Winnie-the-Pooh's Picnic Cookbook". These are a great sandwiches to take to the park on a Sunday afternoon, however we tend to eat them more for breakfast or brunch. One day I made them, cut them in to quarters and took them to my office. Everyone loved them. They were all pleasantly surprised. They also make a great conversation piece. It gets everyone talking about weird things they eat (ex. ketchup & pickle sandwiches). I assure you these are MUCH better than ketchup & pickle sandwiches. TRY THEM!!"

Pretty good! I've had p'nut butter and apple sandwiches before, but never tried them with sprouts. However, the sprouts I used were bean sprouts as we are not too fond of the alfalfa. Served as a brunch with your #65106. Thnx for posting, Kit. Made for Fall 2008 PAC

DEFINATELY an interesting sandwich! lol My daughter and I just tried them, and while she chose to take the entire sandwich apart and eat things item by item, I ate them altogether. I wouldn't say it's a fantastic sandwich that I'll recommend to everyone, but it's really not too bad. The only thing I would say I didn't care for, was the alfalfa aftertaste even thought I didn't have much on. Other then that, it was pretty good. : ) I might make them again for the fun of it.

I used to eat these as a kid all of the time. We never used the alfalfa sprouts though. They are great!
