    When I find myself using a simple recipe a number of different ways I figure it’s earned a solo appearance on Veggie Primer. That’s what happened with this Easy Peanut Sauce. I’ve already shared it in a couple recipes - but it offers oh so many possibilities!

    Enjoy With Sushi

    I usually dip veggie sushi in low sodium Tamari sauce, but this easy peanut sauce is a nice option. Try it with:

    • Veggie Quinoa Sushi Rolls (V and GF)
    • Cucumber Pear Sushi

    Enjoy With Salad

    This easy peanut sauce made its first appearance on Veggie Primer in my Pear Avocado Sushi Salad. But it doesn’t have to end there. Try it in the place of other sauces and salad dressings:

    • How To Make A Perfect Salad
    • Sweet Potato Green Salad

    Enjoy With Spring Rolls

    My Apple Peanut Spring Rolls recipe also featured this easy peanut sauce. Try it in the place of other spring roll sauces:

    • Teriyaki Veggie Spring Rolls - GF and V
    • White Bean Mango Spring Rolls {V & GF}
