This is soooo good! I just used regular basil and omitted the mint leaves, I used a large halapeno pepper in place of the red chili pepper and reduced the fish sauce to 1/3 cup, I also added in 3 tablespoons vegetable oil to the vinaigrette. thanks for a great recipe Ellie, my DH enjoyed this for lunch!...Kitten:)

<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>
