Peanut Sauce:
- 3/4 cup peanut butter made with just peanuts + salt
- 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce or tamari
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil (omit if you don’t want any sesame flavor)

- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 small cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4–1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions

- Add water: Slowly pour in the water until desired consistency is reached. Start with 1/2 cup and adjust as needed.
