We love this recipe in our house, so creamy and more’ish...
So this has become another fave in the Overend household, the girls love the peanut butter crunch and if they like it it’s a winner for me as we all know kids can be a tough audience.
Don’t worry if your little ones don’t like chilli, just leave that out and the dish is still delish!!
