GRILLED VEGAN PEANUT SATAY
This recipe is a Thai twist on kabobs for your late summer barbecues. Spiciness or mildness can be adjusted to taste and cooking time is minimal. Get some friends and family to help chop the vegetables and it will be a breeze.

If you have been cooped up in a small vacation cottage in the rain with no wifi aka child boredom city, like I have this summer, this recipe will turn your day around. Grill up this meal, break out the board games, (keep your eyes on the knives) and book a back-to-school massage or coaching session with me at Serenity At Hand Bodywork.
