Last night I wanted to find out what we would think if I left out the coconut and it was fine. I am trying to back off on my coconut usage due to the sat fat.<br /><br />I think any veggies would work in this. I have used green beans, cauliflower and shredded kale in the past too.<br /><br />talk to you later,<br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-86954680657443951322010-11-02T11:09:31.677-04:002010-11-02T11:09:31.677-04:00This looks good - much healthier (no surprise) tha...This looks good - much healthier (no surprise) than the peanut butter - coconut milk sauce I sometimes make. The tomato and spices interest me, and I trust your recipes to be really good.

What happens is the nut butter is very thick without the oil, will start to get even thicker and grainy as you add water but will smooth out when you hit the sweet spot. It is super easy just drizzle in the water while the blender or food processor is running.<br /><br />I have not heard of PB2 but I will look it up now. How do they get the calories that low I wonder. :-/<br /><br />thanks for the tip,<br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-30909776639911922232010-11-02T08:38:50.884-04:002010-11-02T08:38:50.884-04:00So we were both thinking curry and peanut butter l...So we were both thinking curry and peanut butter last night ;-)Heather Iacobacci-Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14049797586960775747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-12369677818519321892010-11-02T03:06:51.846-04:002010-11-02T03:06:51.846-04:00That looks and sounds amazing!

Does it work with other nut butters. Almond butter is my preferred nut butter and often has floating oil. Could I use the same process to reduce its fat?<br /><br />And secondly have you ever heard of or used PB2? I didn't know if it was ok to post the link so I didn't but if you google it, it comes up pretty easily. The nutritional details are on the website but basically, in a 2 tbsp serving there are 45 calories.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04226467831645851437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-29838786865754783832010-11-01T23:25:29.756-04:002010-11-01T23:25:29.756-04:00Stephanie,

It does make nearly everything better.<br /><br />Nice idea to make dinner tonight tomorrow's post. I have such a busy week I am hoping I can keep up. I still have to post Sunday and that will be multiple posts since there are so many picts I want to share.<br /><br />Hope you have a good day tomorrow and don't spend too much time waiting in line to vote. Around here if you show up at lunch the lines are almost nil. Last year I asked our election judges if there was any pattern to when people voted and they were more than happy to tell me. You might want to ask your judges tomorrow for the next election.<br /><br />have a good evening,<br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-5675668806854438182010-11-01T23:04:28.124-04:002010-11-01T23:04:28.124-04:00Oh, goodness, you said the magic words.

Just put a little PB in it : )<br /><br />And I was going to cheat. Tonight's dinner post would be my post for tomorrow just in case I am busy (it's voting day, after all!).
