40g

- Measure out 2 tablespoons of strawberry jam.
2. Spread the Peanut Butter:
- Lay out one slice of bread on a clean plate or workspace.
- Use a butter knife to spread 4 tablespoons of peanut butter evenly over the entire surface of the bread slice. Make sure to cover the edges for a consistent flavor in every bite.
3. Spread the Strawberry Jam:
- Take the second slice of bread.
- Using a clean knife or the other side of the butter knife, spread 2 tablespoons of strawberry jam evenly over the entire surface of this bread slice.
4. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Carefully align the two slices of bread so that the peanut butter and strawberry jam sides are facing each other.

Tips:

- For an even smoother spread, warm the peanut butter in the microwave for a few seconds before spreading it on the bread.

- To prevent the bread from getting soggy, spread peanut butter on both slices of bread before adding the jam in the middle.

- For added texture and flavor, consider using crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy.

- Try toasting the bread slices lightly for a warm and crispy twist on the classic sandwich.

- If you're looking to reduce added sugar, opt for a natural or low-sugar strawberry jam.

Voila! Your big peanut butter and jelly sandwich is ready to enjoy. Whether you're packing it for lunch or indulging in a quick snack, this tasty treat is sure to bring a smile to your face.
