BLACK ELVIS

this one is almost a dessert sandwich.
f'real.
it's got chocolate, coconut, peanut butter, and banana,
plus THREE slices of fried multigrain bread.
you get it.
you like it.
fried peanut butter and bananas-elvis style.
but also, chocolate, because black elvis is even better.

word up.
coconut oil and a hot press had that bread doing some kind of sensually
crisped-up coconut sorcery.

the toasty flavors really worked with those seeds and the heat.
i like when that happens.
a lot.
next up,
a blend of toasted unsweetened medium sized coconut flakes
and roasted chopped peanuts.
there's also the very extremely chunky all-natural peanut butter, too.
and the banana, which is just sliced up banana, but that's all you need.

and then there's the chocolate.
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips;
1/4 tsp vanilla;
3 T non-dairy milk;
1 T cacao nibs;
1 tsp cacao-
heated, melted, stirred up, and mixed in with 3 T coconut-peanut blend.

look:

SO FILLLLLLLLLTHY, but just right.
so,
it's a FAT slather of chunky butts on the outside edges, thendouble toasty 'nuts,
then banana,
then chocolate then bread, then the exact same things in reverse order,
so the peanut butter is at the ends and the chocolate is on either side of the middle slice.
something this simple shouldn't be so freaking awesome.
of course, it's got ALL the fat and sugar, so you still pay for it in the end....
but it's absolutely worth it for all that ENORMOUS taste.
i know i'd eat three of these no problem.
i have a talent for sandwiches that cannot be stopped,
and i won't either...
until monday, anyway.
rules is rules, and sandwich week is always eight days long.
a long december isn't just about adam duritz being a hell of a songwriter, man.
but a long week between bread is just the way it is;
never quiet, never soft.....
