Peanut Butter Honey Sandwich
As a blogger there are all kinds of intricate things that you do before you publish a post on your blog.
You start by developing a recipe, researching ingredients or traveling to onsite locations. Next comes photographing the meal, writing a story, the recipe and combining everything together to actually publish a blog.
Additionally before I get started I do keyword research to make sure the topic I'm sharing is time relevant to readers. For instance publishing a hot soup on a 100 degree day isn't always the best decision!
And as you know, the majority of my meals are quick and easy. And this recipe is a classic!
Kingsburg Honey Hives
Dan and I had the opportunity to tour Kingsburg Honey a few weeks ago. We had the pleasure of meeting with the owner Daren and his children. It was exciting and informative to see the process of honey farming from start to finish!
Have you tasted raw organic honey? Drizzled over the peanut butter, biting into this sandwich was an explosion of flavor. I remember so specifically the bright, sweet eruption of sweetness as it touched the roof of my mouth. It was honey ❤️ at first bite!
Deb Clark
It was a warmer than expected day. Because the bees were still active Daren carefully supervised while his son lit the smoker.
Inspecting the Hive
A light dusting of smoke triggers reflexes in the bees to "save the hive." They quickly ingest honey which slows them down and makes them less likely to sting.
(This is my less than technical version of the explanation! 😂 ) The entire process was fascinating!
In addition to checking out the hives we got to see some of the process of harvest also. This includes a tour of the processing plant and sampling right from a honeycomb!
Harvesting Organic Honey
If you're interested in learning more about the process, here's the link to their website and a short video sharing some great information!
Let me just say the process is fascinating the product amazing and to think it's raw, natural and organic and it's all built by bees! Super cool!
Honey Sandwich
The "Honeypot Kit" which include the stick drizzler and lid with a hole is a product Kingsburg Honey sells online and IMO a must have for honey enthusiasts!
Does peanut butter and honey taste good?
A peanut butter and honey sandwich is the perfect combination. It is a great meal for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Have you tasted raw organic honey? Drizzled over the peanut butter, this sandwich is an explosion of flavor. The bright, sweet eruption of sweetness as it touched the roof of you mouth is swoon worthy!
Next time you make a pb&j consider swapping out the jam or jelly for honey instead!

Thanks for sharing your trip to Kingsburg Honey with me. I'm fascinated - I didn't know about the "smoking" process. And - yay for PB and honey sandwiches - I gotta admit I usually have a banana - but am gonna try going without it next time.

Oh I think you have a winner there - how about combining the best of both worlds? PB Banana and honey, YUM!
