Elvis’ Matzo Meal

This recipe was inspired by the king himself, Elvis. I love him and this recipe is all shook up. All shook up, get it? His favorite sandwich was fried peanut butter, bananas, honey and bacon on white bread.

Serving Size: 1 as a meal, 2 as a snack

Ingredients

2 matzos
½ cup creamy peanut butter, divided *
1 banana, sliced thin
1 tablespoon honey
4 slices of bacon (optional) **
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

* Peanuts are kitniyot, meaning “legumes,” which are forbidden for consumption on Passover for Ashkenazic Jews.

** If included recipe is no longer kosher or vegetarian.

Preparation

Spread ¼ cup of peanut butter on 1 side of 1 matzo.

Place banana slices on top of peanut butter, covering the surface of the matzo.

Drizzle honey over bananas.

Cook bacon in a small skillet for about 3 minutes, until crisp (1 ½ minutes on each side), or in the microwave for about 1 minute. Drain and place on top of honey. The bacon is optional and of course must be eliminated on Passover.

Smear remaining ¼ cup of peanut butter on 1 side of the other matzo and place peanut butter side down on top of the first matzo like a sandwich.

Melt butter in a medium skillet over low to medium heat.

Place matzo sandwich carefully into pan. Use a large spatula, you wouldn’t wanna drop it would ya? Fry until golden brown, pressing down and with a spatula every 30 seconds or so. When one side is brown flip it over and do the other side, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Cut into four squares and eat hot.

Bernie's Tip

A pizza cutter is the best weapon to use when attempting to cut matzo.

This recipe is hilarious. My daughter and I cried with laughter. We really liked omitting the bacon for passover. It is so hard to get kosher for passover bacon. Loved it.

Hello Yolanda and Yolanda’s daughter

I am so thrilled that you both loved my Elvis recipe so much. He was the king after all so we should take direction from him and shake up our matzo meals.

Happy Passover

Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using? I’m looking to start my own blog soon but I’m having a hard time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.

I have thought about freezer cooking too but have always thought it to be daunting a task. Plus, one method of freezer cooking is to do it with other women and split up the final product. I’ve never been able to do this because of the allergies.
This recipe is a great first try at freezer cooking. Let me know how your attempts go and what you make.

Its not bad at all, I ate some plain and some with some egg salad I happened to have on hand. I will try some other recipes during the year when I have time to experiment, and then may have another to use next year. And i truly love how much depth these matzo balls add to the chicken noodle soup. patio enclosure
