Peanut Butter Chicken
I was really uncertain about mixing tomatoes with peanut butter, but this is a winning combination! I'm adding this to my regular menu rotation. I did put in less peanut butter than called for, and I think I'll try adding peas or another veggie that I have on hand next time just because I like experimenting.

Mexican Orzo Salad
I took this to a potluck with Chinese friends and they all loved it since it was a different flavor than they usually get. It does make a lot but the bowl was empty when I took it home! I didn't have yellow peppers so just skipped them. I used olive oil and stirred it into the pasta before adding anything else so it would be easier to mix in the other ingredients. I gave this 4 stars because it seemed a little bland. I added a couple teaspoons of spicy mexican chili powder and a little cayenne which gave it just the punch it needed. As others suggested, I made it the day before so the flavors could blend better. I'll definitely make this again!

Chicken Cilantro
I have to give this 4 stars because I altered it quite a bit. My blender is broken so I just added crushed garlic and chopped cilantro after sauteeing the onions and chicken. I also added some red pepper flakes to spice it up a bit and then, because I wanted more of a one-pot meal, I added 1/2 c corn, about 1 cup black beans and a can of chopped tomatoes. I served it over noodles since I was out of rice. My husband and kids enjoyed it so that confirms that it's a keeper!
