This is a quick and easy, yet delicious, dish for any night of the week. Serve over rice or noodles (I use whole wheat spaghetti sometimes) or cauliflower rice to keep the carbs down. You may want to add a little more water to create more sauce if using noodles.

Feel free to use more cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to kick up the heat!

I also use a food scale to weigh the peanut butter and honey into a bowl. It’s a lot easier than trying to scrape out a little tablespoon. This little thing comes in handy all the time!
