Peanut Butter and Jelly

Like any child Patience still loves peanut butter or almond butter and Jelly. We do put that in her lunch sometimes. Instead of Jelly we use Spreadable fruit. The main reason is it all natural and no high fructose syrup.
The sugar free jam has chemicals or Hfc. With the spreadable fruit it has fruit pectin. ( fruit juice)
In the past we would have thought sugar free was doing "the right thing" just another added tip we have learned from Dr. Goglia. :)



The brand we use Polander. When we put peanut butter and jam in her lunch we usually had carrot sticks or celery. Not another fruit. Or a fruit such as apple because of the fiber. Using only whole wheat bread. And all natural Almond Butter or Peanut Butter. I really shutter to think of the weight she would gain using white bread, regular jelly, and regular peanut butter. And the most important thing how good it would be for her.
