102. Easy peanut sauce

Sun Feb 9, 2020, 11:37 PM

Feb 2020

1 Tbsp creamy peanut butter
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp water

Put 3 ingredients in small bowl and stir with a fork until blended

I love this sauce on steamed veggies like kale, spinach, or broccoli.

Use more or less soy sauce depending on your taste
Use more or less water to achieve desired consistency

Once you make it a couple times you'll figure out just how much of each suits your taste
I've made it so many times I don't even have to measure my ingredients
