Peanut Butter Spirals

• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 3/4 cup vegetable stock
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodlum if you are a salt watcher)
• 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar or 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon honey or 1 tablespoon rice syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 10 ounces spiral shaped pasta or 10 ounces rotini pasta, cooked, drained and kept warm
• 1 1/2 cups frozen green peas, thawed
• chili oil or Tabasco sauce

1. Add the first 7 ingredients to a blender or food processor.
2. Process until smooth.
3. Toss the warm pasta and peas together in a mixing bowl; add the sauce and toss well.
4. Add in chili oil or Tabasco sauce to taste if you want a spicier flavor.
5. **note--the peanut butter sauce thickens as it stands. Mix in a little water if the dish sits awhile before serving, or before serving leftovers the next day.
