Yum! I used the Crunch Time PB and put the sauce over hot spaghetti and added cooked shrimp, fried egg, red and yellow chopped pepper and edamame. It was delicious and even my 4 and 6 year olds devoured it!
I made this dressing. It tastes a lot better than it looks (no offense, I’m just used to smoother lookin’ dressings)
Jody, I love your Idea of crunch time over hot pasta…maybe I’ll try something shorter like fussili.
Rock on pb peeps!
