I've never actually had an Elvis Sandwich...peanut butter, bananas and bacon on toasted bread. It wasn't the bacon that made me think twice...it was actually the combination of the peanut butter and banana that had me putting the idea of eating that kind of sandwich off...until now.

Make sandwiches with peanut butter, sliced strawberries and bananas, and head to the beach for a picnic lunch.
I admit to not being sure about this sandwich at all. Such a strange combination. And though I made it and brought it to work last week, I had an alternate lunch should this concoction need to be tossed in the trash.
And you know what? It wasn't that bad! I had no problem polishing off the entire sandwich. But, I have to admit, my least favorite part were the strawberries. But the bananas and peanut butter? Worked. So yeah, I think an Elvis Sandwich will be on the lunch menu sometime soon. Or maybe I could just deep fry the dang thing like Paula Deen does? Why it took me so long to try this combination I'll never know, but now I may need to make up for lost time and have this regularly!
Elvis fried his peanut butter and banana san. Paula Dean copied his idea.

Peanut butter banana sandwiches are great! I used to buy them down the street. They also had one with honey that was good too. This sounds great!
