This was great! My whole family loves thai peanut flavors and this dish was no exception. It was gobbled up quickly and my DD's were asking for more. The only change I'd make is to make more next time. ;) I served this with fried tofu and brown rice for a healthy and delicious lunch! Made for 1 2 3 Tag.
