Ina's Garden...Peanut Butter & Jelly Bars

On April 28, Ina’s Garden members posted Orange Pound Cake to introduce our group to you. Today is our official inaugural post, and what a delicious way to officially launch our group. These Peanut Butter & Jelly bars are seriously addictive, getting better over the course of the day. How? Magic, perhaps – I don’t really know. What I do know is that my staff loved them, as did I.
I used raspberry jam as specified in the recipe, along with creamy peanut butter, but I’ve no doubt the bars would be scrumptious with any jam. Typically, I eat crunchy peanut butter and strawberry jam on a PB&J sandwich, so my plans are to use both the next time I make these, because I will definitely make them again. Rich and gooey, they are perfect for breakfast, lunchbox, or dessert. Find the recipe on Yummy Chunklet’s site, and please link up your delicious bars below, as well – I can’t wait to find out what you thought! Definitely make an effort to visit the other members of Ina’s Garden, along with your fellow participants.  We do ask that as a courtesy, you link back in your post to whichever host site you have linked to. It’s good blog hop etiquette, and it allows others to find one of the main Ina’s Garden posts and join in the fun.  A simple, "Linked to Ina’s Garden at insert the name of whichever blog you have linked to, along with a link to their Ina’s Garden post here" is absolutely fine.

On May 19, our theme is Pasta with Pizazz! Make any Ina Garten pasta recipe and share your experience with us. I have my eye on the Roasted Shrimp and Orzo…mmmmmm.
