Apple and Peanut Butter Sandwich
"I'm trying to eat less carbs and I often have this sandwich for breakfast. Its flavourful, light, crunchy and so simple to make. I find it filling so I don't want to eat much else. I like to use a sweet apple on top of the sandwich and sprinkle it with a pinch of pumpkin or apple pie spice, cinnamon or nutmeg over the apples. You could add whatever spice you like to add to apples."

Mmmm, this was very good. I really liked the flavour combination of the earthy peanut butter with the sweet and sour apple. The cinnamon (which I used because I was out of pumpkin pie spice) added a lovely spicy touch. I used my own bread (Recipe #448813) and really liked it in this sandwich.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this keeper with us, Chef JoeyZ! I will definitely make this again. -
This was an interesting flavor combination!! I don't think I toasted my bread long enough, so the inside was still "chewy," which I just found a tad weird with the crispy apple... I used low-carb country bread and a Gala apple, and only realized after I had finished it that I had completely forgotten about the spice!! If I remember it next time, I will edit my review to reflect that... but it was nice even without it. Thanks for posting! UPDATED -- I tried it with a Jazz apple and some cinnamon sprinkled on top... it was wonderful as well!

I was born in northern Ontario in Canada. I am of Irish /Spanish/French Canadian descent.
In 2002, myself, my hubby Stu, and our dog Ginger moved to the high desert of New Mexico.
I am a Domestic Engineer and a Professional Artist. I enjoy oldies, classical and jazz music.
My hubby is a Professional Jazz and Classical Musician. He plays with the Albuquerque Philharmonic Orchestra which is wonderful because I get to see all his concerts and they are free!
We are trying our best to live a Green and Sustainable lifestyle which is no easy feat in a desert.
I love any cookbook that promotes good health and tasty meals. I enjoy pasta dishes and sweet vegan deserts. I have found that I am very successful in converting conventional recipes to vegan. This has allowed me to enjoy all types of foods that I other wise could not.
Some day we would like to relocate to upstate New York and be closer to my family in Canada and my husbands in New York. My DH retires in 9 years, so nothing will stop us from heading home then :-)
