I found this on recipezaar and gave it a try, it was really good and made for a great side dish and lunch. I know it sounds weird to mix lime juice, vinegar, fish sauce and peanut butter but the dressing was actually the best part. So good that I doubled the amounts to make it a little more saucy. It's super low cal and tastes great if you're into Asian food. I ate this with meals every day during the first week of my new meal plan and it kept me satisfied and kept me from not missing the salty foods I had been eating.
