Everyone loves the classic - Peanut Butter and Jelly. Let’s turn it into a snack and make it healthier (but still very tasty!).

And, let’s have a little FUN, gosh darnit!

GO GRAB THESE INGREDIENTS:

1) Thomas’ Light Multi-Grain English Muffin

• 6 grams of protein
• only 100 calories per muffin
• less than 1 gram of sugar per muffin
• 0 grams of trans fat
• These taste great

2) Peanut Butter

• Your best bet is an all-natural brand with low sodium and low sugar. You can keep it traditional with creamy or fill up all those nooks and crannies with chunky-style peanuts, mmm. Arrowhead Mills Organic Crunchy Peanut Butter is one of my favorites and it has:
• 95 calories in 1 Tbsp
• no sodium
• 0.5 grams sugar in 1 Tbsp (that’s very low)

3) Low-Sugar Jelly or Preserves

• I use Smucker’s Low-Sugar Strawberry Preserves, which has:
• 25 calories / Tbsp
• only 5 grams of sugar / Tbsp

NOW, DO THIS:

1. Use only 1 half of the English muffin, toast in toaster
2. Use 1 tablespoon of peanut butter to cover lightly
3. Add a dollop of jelly to make the traditional PB&J complete
4. Enjoy yourself! It’s Peanut Butter Jelly Time!!!
