Peanut Butter Banana Sandwich

This is one of my favorite sandwiches, it is the sandwich I consume most and usually on a daily and weekly basis. It is filling, healthy, and nutritious. It can be eaten for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or late nigh indulgence .

I remember I would pack these for school on a daily basis, that's how much I loved it. People always looked at me wierd for eating for consuming everyday that sandwich, gosh some teacher even questioned me about it... she asked me what I had in the fridge besides that... geez BACK OFF I LIKE IT OKAY! I obviously have alot considering that I cook often...

Anyways another reason I made it is because I rather eat anything than the GARBAGE SERVED AT SCHOOL HERE IN CALIFORNIA THAT SOME KIDS ACTUALLY LIKE! BARF TASTIC.

Sometimes I would take different kinds of sandwiches though and foods though but thats a different story.

I consider it to be a truely "American Food" (meaning from USA) so I will label it as so. It's probably one of my favorite things from American cuisine (whatever that means)...

Ingredients:
-2 slices of any type of American Sandwich Bread (I use 100% Whole Wheat Bread, Kirkland)
-4 tablespoons more or less of peanut butter of any brand (popular brands here are Jiff and Skippy. I use Kirklands Organic Peanut Butter made only with dry roasted peanuts and salt)
-1 regular banana

Directions:
(1)Toast bread in a toaster.
(2)Spread peanut on both slices as much or as little as you want
(3)On one place small pieces of banana all over.
(4)Close sandwich, cut diagnally if desired
(5)Serve with a tall glass of milk, or with nothing.
NOTE VARIATIONS:
-If one doesn't have banana it is delicous with strawberry, grape, raspberry, and blueberry jam or preserves. (It is very popular to consume with strawberry jam, Smuckers brand. And using white bread but I like this recipe best)
-You can enjoy it with only honey and peanut butter to or drizzle honey on the banana prior to closing.
