Ingredients
- 2 slices of white or wheat sandwich bread - cut into child friendly size
- 1 tablespoon of natural peanut butter - make sure it is safe for toddlers who are not used to challenging textures
- 2 teaspoons of organic jelly or jam - make sure it is of a flavor safe for toddlers
Directions
- Place the two slices of bread onto a cutting board.
- Use a butter knife to spread the peanut butter evenly onto one slice of bread. Witty joke: “Remember, the key to a perfect PB & J sandwich is evenly spread PB & J!”
- Next, use a teaspoon to spread the jelly or jam onto the other slice of bread.
- Now, take the two slices of bread and place them together to make a sandwich.
- If using pre-sliced bread, you are done! But, if you are using a full loaf, please cut the sandwich into variations that your toddler would find easier to handle and eat.
Recommended Sides
This sandwich pairs great with sides such as fresh fruit, a vegetable plate, or a small side salad. For a full meal add a 8oz glass of fat-free or low-fat milk. Witty joke: “Side dishes should never take the side seat!”
