Peanut sauce so good, you won't even notice that it's vegan!

Recipe time! I keep meaning to blog more, but life sometimes gets in the way.

I made peanut sauce tonight to put on steamed veggies and whole wheat pasta, yum! It's delicious AND vegan, or vegetarian, depending upon which ingredients you choose.This recipe is delicious, and my husband loves it, and he is quite the meat-eater.

I received a request for the recipe, so two birds one stone, right? A blog post and a typed recipe! So here it goes.

Peanut Sauce (via Skinny Bitch)

  • 3 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup hot water
  • 2 tablespoons Bragg's Liquid Aminos, soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon agave nectar or honey
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
Mix everything together and put on noodle dishes, leafy greens, or anything. Penne pasta + lots of mixed steamed veggies = delicious!

To spice it up, add ground red pepper and a splash of lime juice.

This recipe is delicious, but runny, so if you like thick peanut sauce, you may want to add cornstarch or another thickening agent.
