    I added a few green onions and two finely chopped carrots to the recipe. It was pretty good, but I think it would be better if you use a "natural" peanut butter that doesn't have so much sugar in it, because it turned out almost too sweet, and I didn't even use the applejuice. - 6/25/07

    I am a fan of this dish. To make it a meal I add cooked cubes of chicken and toss! The leftovers are the best! - 3/18/07
