    Sauteed boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into strips, sauteed those with thin slices of onions and garlic. Added a little water to get up those bits of goodness. Add 2 cups of spinach. Then added the peanut sauce. We really loved it! - 1/28/08

    I've made this with julienned vegetables (scallions a must!) and used PB2, reconstituted with water and low sodium tamari. I finely mince the ginger, too. I always opt for lower sodium and fat, hence my changes. - 1/23/08

    I made this last night for my lunch today. after reading the reviews of how rich the sauce was I made 1/3 of the sauce, watered it down a little and mixed it with 1/2 of the noodles. I had it cold with chopped celery, grated carrot and chicken breast. Very tasty and tangy. - 7/16/08

    I made this for hubby and I for dinner tonight. I put in a fraction of the red pepper flakes because hubby doesn't like spicy food. I also added 8 oz of boneless skinless chicken breast. We both thought this was very good, a definate keeper. - 6/11/08

    I loved this dish!!!! I made it last night and ate 1/4 of the container. Later that evening my husband finished the other 3/4 of it off for dinner, he really liked it also!!! I made it with tahini instead of peanut butter. - 6/21/07
