Veggies In Peanut Sauce

January 9, 2016 By Claira

Veggies in Peanut Sauce- a little spicy, salty, sweet, and has the creaminess of peanut butter just pulls it all together. A great weeknight meal for meatless Monday. Vegan and vegetarian dish.

This recipe is a staple in our home. A few years ago, Jason and I started to try and eat more vegetarian meals instead of just doing meatless Mondays. We were only eating meat/chicken 1-2 times a week. We tried some different stew type dishes that we probably would never eat again.

Let me just say this one will not disappoint: it is a little spicy, salty, sweet, and the creaminess of peanut butter just pulls it all together. I love it too because I sometimes just add vegetables that I have left over in the fridge from the week along with the vegetables that I already planned on adding. In the recipe, we always add zucchini, red onion, carrots, red pepper and sugar snap peas. The nice thing is if you do not like one of those vegetables you can substitute it with something you love. Broccoli, peas, spinach, and cauliflower are all vegetables that I can see going really well in this dish.Veggies in Peanut Sauce- a little spicy, salty, sweet, and has the creaminess of peanut butter just pulls it all together.

We serve this vegetable dish over rice as it complements it all very nicely. You can also serve it over your favorite grain. This dish is also a vegan dish. I promise you won’t be missing the meat when you eat these veggies in peanut sauce.
