Easy, Nutritious, and Delicious. I used whole wheat thin spaghetti. My husband loved it and asked for it again! Definitely a keeper recipe.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe but it tastes AMAZING. I used a little less peanut butter, and light dressing as well as using green onions and skipping the peanuts (I have a little one!) but it tastes excellent and I will be making it again.
