Ingredients
4 slices challah bread, lightly toasted
2 tbsp. mayonnaise
4 tbsp. peanut butter
1 beefsteak tomato, thinly sliced
1/2 c. corn silk, finely chopped
1/4 c. thinly sliced green onions
Preparation
Step 1Spread mayonnaise on all 4 slices of bread, then spread peanut butter evenly across each slice. Top 2 slices with tomato, corn silk, and green onions, then close sandwiches with remaining 2 slices bread.
I made this version during a week of shooting Budget Eats and wanted to find a way to use up my corn silk, which tastes surprisingly similar to some microgreens in terms of texture and flavor. Instead of lettuce, I opted for finely chopped corn silk and green onions in my sandwich, which means you can absolutely use whatever vegetation and herbs you want in yours. I opted for challah bread because it’s what I had on hand, but I’m thinking you can do it just as deliciously on slices of sourdough or whole wheat bread or even focaccia if you wanted to. If you make this peanut butter sandwich, leave a comment down below and let us know what you put in yours!
