loving this thai peanut sauce…
Not too long ago I was strolling the aisles at my local Trader’s Joe and came across a thai peanut salad dressing. Now I know this doesn’t sound too special but to The Hubby it is was a HIGE find. You see The Hubby loves peanut butter, he loves thai flavors and he loves sauces so really this was a perfect find for him.

A little creamy, a little spicy and a little yum
The Holidays are here and whether you are still thinking about your Christmas dinner or you are planning for your big New Year’s celebration this creamy horseradish sauce is a perfect addition for all your favorite beef dishes.

When I decided to make the beef tenderloin I started thinking about horseradish sauce and thought I would just buy store bought and then I decided I wanted to…
