Steemit Sandwich Contest Week 46! It’s Not your Average Peanut Butter Sandwich!

Hello my fellow Sandwich Friends! It’s Week 46 of the legendary Steemit Sandwich Contest!

---

Well, I made it! Sandwich done just in time! We are on the road traveling in our travel van visiting many State Parks throughout the US.

---

But first, I want to thank @ jaybird for hosting this contest as well as all of our loyal sponsors. Without them we wouldn’t have this contest! Thank you @bleedpoet and @jaybird for sponsoring us this week!

---

My kitchen in our travel van has 1 pan to cook with.

---

Yes, just one. I have been known to be creative but this week, I had to pull out one of our long time favorite sandwiches.

---

Mr. Bird and I began dating in college many many moons ago and this was a sandwich which we loved to make. In fact as poor newlyweds we made it frequently for several years after we were married. You know, one of those tried and true sandwiches.

Bacon, Goat cheese, Jam and grilled....can't go wrong!

I’ve always made my own jellies and jams, strawberry is a huge favorite. It’s so easy to make, I’ll show you!

It’s Not your Average Peanut Butter Sandwich!

This sandwich is for all kids! Both big and small!!

Ingredients

• 8 Fresh Strawberries
• 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
• 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
• Almond or Peanut Butter
• Your favorite butter or non-dairy butter
• Organic Goat Cheese
• 6 slices Thick sliced bacon
• Sourdough Bread
• Touch of Strawberry Fields Forever

Preparation

Strawberry Jelly

• Wash and chop strawberries and place in saucepan. Add Maple Syrup and Chia Seeds. Stir well.

• Bring berries to boil, lower heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. I like chunky strawberry jam so I don’t want to overcook it. When done. Set aside
  

• I spiralized the bacon and then cook it, I think it gives it a little pizzaz!

• Spread goat cheese on one slice, peanut butter on the other slice. Butter opposite sides of both pieces of bread.

Yes, I know, it gets a little tricky here, but you can do it!

• Place bread with peanut butter in frying pan (butter side down.) Spread jelly on top of peanut butter, lay bacon on top. Top with Goat cheese slice. Brown sandwich on both sides

Remove from heat! Slice and…

Bon Apetite!

Needless to say, Mr. Bird was thumbs up tonight! Especially after such a long drive today.

I hope you’ll try it! Thanks again @jaybird for this great weekly challenge! Good luck to all!

And as always, blessings to you!
