I don’t know about you, but I really LOVE peanut butter. My day is incomplete without it to be honest. I go down the sugar-free route, and with it’s high protein content, it’s guilt free consumption as far as I’m concerned.
With PB being a constant food vice of mine, it was with great excitement a number of years ago that I discovered Peanut Butter & Co.’s sandwich shop in NYC.
On my first visit, I was torn between pretty much everything on the menu. Do I choose the chocolate peanut butter pie, the peanut butter brownie, or The Elvis? With a name like that, I figured I had to give it a go.
(On August 16, it will be 35 years since the King passed away. A lover of this tasty snack and the reason it is so often nickname ‘The Elvis’).
A sandwich with bacon, banana, peanut butter, and honey. Interesting combo some might say, a winning combo I can certainly confirm! Whilst my arteries might have needed a breather post sandwich consumption, it was worth every single calorie.
Give it a go, and if you like peanut butter as much as I do, perhaps check out The Peanut Butter & Co.’s cookbook, which has pride of place in my kitchen.
