WE'RE TOTALLY NUTS!: my perspective about my 'Nutty Family' and our crazy, family-owned Peanut Butter Company

Sammy of the Week : PB Sushi

I realize that I did not post a “Sammy of the Week” for the past two weeks!  What is wrong with me?!  Well, two weeks ago I was sooo overwhelmed with excitement from the spot on the TODAY SHOW and last week was St. Patrick’s Day and I was literally on my deathbed, sicker than I have ever been in my life!  I thought I was getting better but didn’t and am just now finally realizing that I am not going to die – I will eventually be 100% again.  Someday.

Until then, I just made up this incredible snack/Sammy/dessert…PB Sushi Rolls!  My Aunt Nanette had seen a similar version on Jessica Simpson’s twitter page back in January but it was totally unhealthy.  Jessica Simpson copied that idea from Pete Wentz or something like that…. Anywho, she called her creation a ‘Dream Dessert Sushi Roll’.  Jessica’s tweet says, “strawberry fruit roll up, PB&J with rice krispies…roll it up and enjoy :)

When Nanette heard about this she thought it could be such a fun idea to try with Krema PB!  Mmmm!  I agreed and finally I went last night to the store to buy the necessary ingredients for my PB Sushi Rolls.  I fully intended on purchasing the ingredients to make the exact same sushi rolls that Jessica Simpson had made and then making my own healthy version and compare the two.  At the store, I collected everything I needed and re-examined all of my items before heading to the check-out line.  I somewhat remorsefully report that I literally could NOT bring myself to buy Jessica’s ingredients!   The unpronounceable, chemical-filled ingredient lists were astounding!  Even the Rice Krispies!  High Fructose Corn Syrup?  In puffs of rice?  Is that really necessary?  Honestly.  What a disappointment.

I returned home with these two items…

Both are fabulous products.  Totally healthy, all-natural goodness and great taste.  Perfect compliments to our single ingredient – Krema PB!

Here’s how I made my yummilicious PB Sushi rolls…

Take a Smooshed Strawberry Fruit Flat, lay it on your plate.  Spread a generous layer of all-natural Krema PB (I used crunchy) all over one side of the Fruit Flat.  Then pour a handful of Crispy Brown Rice across the top – roll up like a sushi and eat it!  What a treat!PB Sushi

(Ignore the un-manicured fingernails and the ugly bandage on my thumb, evidence of the hazards of having children.  This phtoto is probably too yucky to post but I don’t have a better one – we scarfed these PB Sushi Rolls down soooo quickly :0)PB Sushi
