Peanut Butter Chess Pie with Strawberry Jam Whipped Cream

October 2, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

So here is an admission that as a food blogger, maybe I shouldn’t make. I eat a peanut butter sandwich for lunch most days. Not an Instagram-able composed salad or an exotic, multi-layered bowl of grains or noodles. I do that sometimes, but most of the time, peanut butter on whole wheat bread (no jelly, though I do like it that way).

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
