Notes

Start by adding half the sauce to your buddha bowl and then add the rest to taste. This will help make sure you don't add too much.
If your sauce is too thick you can add a little water or coconut aminos until you reach your desired consistency.
If your sauce is too thin you can add more peanut butter.
