This PB&J is packed with flavors. The buttery, crusted toast is best paired with nutty, crunchy peanut butter and herbal, sweet, citrusy strawberry jam. Nutritionally balance this meal with banana slices to add fiber and protein to the sandwich. Just before serving, drizzle a little bit of spicy honey to bring this peanut butter & jelly sandwich to another level!
