Over the course of cooking for my family I feel like I've got a pretty good eye for determining at a glance whether or not we would like a recipe, before even making it. Of course, sometimes things don't turn out quite the way you expect, but for us there are certain ingredients that guarantee almost a sure-fire success. Peanut butter, cilantro, or pasta are some of those winning combinations for us and this recipe from the latest Taste of Home magazine has all three. Not surprisingly it was a hit for everyone. Even my four-year-old picky girl loved it and came back for seconds!
The ingredients:
12 oz. uncooked whole wheat spaghetti noodles (or fettuccine)
2 cups salsa
1/2 cup peanut butter

4 tsp. soy sauce

heat through. Drain pasta. Serve with chicken mixture. Garnish with peanuts and cilantro. Makes 8 servings. Enjoy!
