Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich
  • 2 pieces Jalapeño Pepper Use canned for quicker prep if needed.
  • 1/2 cup Peanut Butter Choose smooth for easy spreading or chunky for added texture.
  • 4 slices White Bread Swap for whole grain or gluten-free if preferred.
  • 4 slices Applewood Smoked Bacon Thick-cut enhances texture; turkey bacon is a healthier option.
  • 2 tablespoons Cherry Preserves Feel free to substitute with apricot or raspberry preserves.
