Notes
From: Allston, Darlene; 5pm Panic In (Apr 18) Healthy Food Guide
* Soak wooden skewers in cold water for 30 minutes before using, to prevent them from burning.
When I made this snow peas weren’t available locally so I substituted fresh green beans.
Although I’m not a qualified chef I do like to pretend I’m on Master Chef. I source the recipes from the stated source (not sauce) and make them taking the photo of the meal I produce for myself.
