"P" is for Peanut Butter!

I returned home from my trip this afternoon and will be trying to get caught up again. I didn't want to miss out on ABC Wednesday or Sky Watch Friday! Since Gerorgia is known for it's peanuts I decided to use peanut butter for my "P" post. I was reading in a magazine that Elvis once ate 9 of his famous peanut butter and banana sandwiches in one sitting with approximately 48 fat grams each!

Elvis Presley Fried Peanut Butter And Banana Sandwich

2 slices white bread
2 Tablespoons creamy peanut butter (and not that reduced fat stuff)
1 small banana
2 Tablespoons butter

Toast the bread slightly and cool. Spread the PB on one slice, but don't bring the PB up to the edge of the bread.The PB will get warm and run a bit. Slice or mash the banana and put it on the other slice of bread (or on top of the slice with PB on it). Put the bread slices together and fry in hot melted butter until each side is browned.

You know for some reason that just does not sound good to me at all.
My husband is a huge Elvis Fan, but i don't think he ever tried that sandwich either. I knew Elvis ate them but never that many at one time.

Peanut Butter is one of my favorite foods. Good shot...and Great Value at that.

I occasionally eat one peanut butter banana sandwich and here I thought it was healthy.

Gosh! I can feel the ponds creeping on the waistline with every mouthful! LOL! Will give this a miss, it is weighing night tonight over at Fat Club and I have that black dress to squeeze into next week!

Great to see you back.
Was worried about you.

err - I feel sick just thinking about it - I truly detest the stuff - but each to their own!
