Wow – you added peanut butter? I’ll have to try this. I make stir fry waaaay to often and this sounds like a great way to switch things up! Does it have a peanuty taste overall?

Yes! Peanut butter is good with anything, in my opinion 🙂 It has a subtle taste of peanut butter, but it’s not overpowering. Let me know if you try it out! Thanks for stopping by my blog…you have a great blog yourself!

Your husband created this? I wish my hubby could cook! I’m not complaining, he’s got lots of other stuff I appreciate. Still…. Celeste 🙂

He sure did! I’m his sous chef when he cooks so I add my input, but mainly just chop the veggies for him. He’s quite the cook and he’s known in my family for his stir-fry dishes. 🙂
