Open Sesame

What a fun food day! Perfect blood sugar. Banana and two slices of fiber toast spread with local honey and cinnamon for breakfast. Beans and tortillas with salsa for lunch, and for dinner one of my favorite dishes, defatted and tweaked.



This is such a great dish. I love peanuts and sesame oil. Both foods are high in fat. There is a terrific product from Bell Plantation in Georgia. http://bellplantation.com

They make PB2, low fat peanut butter powder. It is THE thing to use to reduce fat in a peanut dish. It mixes up smoothly with water.

For this dish I made a sauce out of:

4 T PB2
1 T brown sugar
1 T soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 16 oz. package of whole wheat noodles - cooked.
1 package of green peas- cooked

I also had the leftover bits of plain steamed vegetables from last night, so I added that in. Get creative. It is hard to break this recipe.

It was so good. It's really good with hot sauce. Lots of texture, lots of flavor, protein, fiber. It's a highly virtuous dish! Makes me remember when I was in my twenties and cold peanut sesame noodles were waking up palates everywhere.
