It’s hard to believe that this recipe first appeared on my blog in early August of 2009, since I’m on a mission on updating and recreating (and improving) old recipes I was able to revisit it. After a refresh and a new set of ingredients, I knew this had to be moved to the top. I hope you enjoy it!

Attention peanut butter lovers!

The best part is that this recipe has peanut butter! For more savory PB recipes check out the peanut butter recipes page. Let’s be honest here: peanut butter is life.

TBK’s Pro Tip: In the last 30 mins of cooking time I add in a bag of frozen broccoli. It goes GREAT! Serve over rice.

This is a new family favorite of ours. I love that a few simple ingredients that I usually have in my pantry can be tossed together for an easy weeknight meal! It’s an after-school hockey night lifesaver!
