Yum... this is deadly! Bring on the heat with the jalapenos and two chili sauces. The veggies and mint helped control it, and all together, the flavor was great! Thanks for sharing! ZWT9 -
This was great! I also added some thinly sliced onions and chopped peanuts and used leftover chicken thighs for the meat and toasted it just like I used to order my banh mi! Made for ZWT 9 -
This sandwich recipe has way more 'hot' than we like, so I cut back on the hot sauce, the chili sauce AND the jalapeno, possibly changing the entire intent of the recipe, BUT we still had a nice lunch nevertheless! I used shredded chicken breast that I had on hand in the freezer, & that worked very well! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar tag]

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
