This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I added some chili peppers to spice it up.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of chicken. It was just as good!

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I substituted almond butter in the sauce. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my taste. I added more vegetables and used a different type of sauce.
