With all of the hullabaloo (fun word!) about pumpkin popping up around the blog world, apples, another autumn staple, sometimes fall to the wayside.
Not today!
Bring back the apple! 😀
Last week my friend Betsy sent me a link to a recipe for apple sandwiches, featured on Whole Foods’ website.
The minute I clicked the link I knew I had to recreate the fine lookin’ fruity sandwiches.
This morning I got to work, slicing an apple into horizontal slices before carefully cutting around the core to pop it out. (Yes, and apple corer would work wonders here, but I don’t have one. My apple corer also slices the apple, which is phenomenal, but doesn’t work for this particular recipe.)
Once I had several apple slices ready to go, I quickly ate all but four, because that’s all the recipe required and I was hangry!
I then topped two apple slices with about a tablespoon of peanut butter each before sprinkling the nut butter with ginger granola that I purchased from Whole Foods last night.
I topped the granola and peanut butter covered apple slice with the remaining nakie apple slice to seal the deal.
While making the apple, peanut butter and granola sandwiches, I enjoyed a peanut butter finger as did this little one…
She needed the extra fuel after our 2.5 mile walk this morning and I’m not about to deprive someone who craves a lil’ pb. That’s just evil.
Workout
BodyPump, will you ever get old?
I sure hope not because that class always is a good workout and makes me do exercises I despise but know are highly effective (squats, lunges).
Today’s class was a great one and included the song “Now You’re Gone” by Basshunter during the shoulder track. That techno gem is my favorite BodyPump song everrr. (Ross, I figured you might appreciate that one too! 😉 )
Now it’s time to get to work, my friends!
Let’s start this week on a good note. Happy Monday!

Just made this peanut butter apple sandwich for lunch and it was so so good! I didn’t have granola so I used quick-cooking oats, added a little honey, and it came out great! Thanks for sharing…I love peanut butter so the more recipes I can find that call for pb, the better 🙂
