Since I started this blog a month ago and then promptly neglected to do anything with it, I thought I'd better start things off with a bang. I, GeekChick SofaGirl, have invented a recipe.
I know, right?
I call it... wait for it... PB&J Wrap.
That's right. It's a wrap, with peanut butter and jelly inside.
Brilliant. I know.
It took a lot of work to come up with PB&J Wrap (not the PB&J Wrap... PB&J Wrap don't need no "the"). First, I had to have tortilla shells. Then I had to remember to buy jelly. And finally, I had to be hungry and lazy. (That last one was fairly easy, since it's pretty much my default setting.)
I bought the tortilla shells to make scrambled egg wraps at work, which probably sounds a lot more impressive than PB&J Wrap on the surface since it involves stirring eggs, turning on the microwave, and sprinkling bacon bits and cheese; but I assure you, it's totally lame in comparison. So I brought the leftover shells home because I got bored with the scrambled egg wraps.
Then one day a few weeks ago I was hungry and sick and just wanted something to eat that would take minimal effort so I could get back to lying on the couch and coughing... and I was out of Pizza Rolls. While digging hopelessly through the cupboard I spotted the tortilla wraps flopped on top of the peanut butter jar, and it was a total epiphany.
Sadly, I was out of grape jelly. So the experiment had to wait.
But I'm happy to report that tonight, after several days of practice using regular bread, I finally achieved... (dramatic pause...) PB&J Wrap.
Because I think that PB&J Wrap should be shared with the world, here's the recipe:
-1 tortilla shell
-peanut butter (smooth (because chunky would probably rip the tortilla))
-jelly (I use grape, but if you want to shake it up by throwing down some strawberry or black currant or orange marmalade, go crazy. I'm comfortable with that.)
Spread peanut butter liberally in a 2-3 inch stripe down the center of the tortilla wrap. Add and spread jelly to taste. Roll wrap in whatever shape pleases you. NOM. Repeat until full or your mouth is stuck closed, whichever comes first.
By the way, if anyone links to any sort of evidence that PB&J Wrap existed before I invented it, you'll destroy my soul. Fair warning.
