How to Make a Peanut-Butter & Jelly Sandwich:

Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are a very popular and delicious part of America, but where did the PB&J come from? In 1901, the peanut butter and jelly sandwich title was published by Julia Davis Chandler. The sandwich immediately became a hit and is still very popular in the United States. The peanut butter and jelly sandwich is a yummy treat with nutritional value, too. It has jelly made from healthy fruit, peanuts that give you protein, and bread, which is a good source of fiber and grains. We will now be teaching you how to create this delicious food.

• 1 Jar of Jelly: 1+ Tbs. (any flavor of your choice)
• 1-2 Knives

Steps:

1. Wash your hands with warm water and soap in the sink. Turn on the water, put your hands underneath the faucet, put soap on them, and scrub vigorously for at least 20 sec.
2. Take out a plate,two slices of bread, and a knife.
3. Set the slices on the plate perpendicular (side by side) to each other.
4. Take out a jar of peanut butter and a jar of jelly.
5. Unscrew lid of peanut butter jar (counter clockwise) and set it on the counter.
6. Pick up knife carefully by non-sharp side and dip the sharp end of the knife into the jar of peanut butter and use it to scoop the peanut butter out. The amount of peanut butter varies on your preference. However, the recommended amount would 1-2 Tbs.
7. Note: The more peanut butter you use the stickier and harder and to chew the sandwich will be.
8. Take knife (now covered in peanut butter)and place peanut butter side on bread and spread peanut butter on one slice of the bread. If you need more peanut butter, repeat step 6 and add another layer.
9. If you wish to have a clean knife for your jelly, you can either get a new knife or rinse off the knife you’re using.
10. Unscrew lid off jelly (counter clockwise) and place it on the counter.
11. Repeat what you did with the peanut butter, but with jelly on the other slice of bread.
12. Take the two slices of bread (one with peanut butter, one with jelly) and match them up and stick them together with the peanut butter and jelly on the inside to create the sandwich.
13. (Optional) You may take the knife and cut the sandwich diagonally, horizontally, or vertically through the middle depending on your preference.
14. Put materials away and clean up by: Screwing the peanut butter lid back on the jar (clockwise). Do the same with the Jelly. Put them both back in the refrigerator. Wash the knife/knives and put it/them back where you found it/them. (Probably a drawer.) Wipe up any spilled peanut butter or jelly from off of the counter using a wet paper towel. Afterwards, use a dry paper towel to finish cleaning the counter. Throw the used paper towels in the trash can.
15. Yum! Yum! Maybe get a glass of cold milk and eat it up!
