thai peanut wrap: wake the neighbors

this afternoon we accidentally created the best meal i've ever eaten. it takes a bit of prep--but holy cow--SO worth it. 

if you dont like flavor explosions, then don't make this. keep eating your cheerios and chicken nuggets--by all means. but, if you are among the refined eaters of this world, then you'll want to nosh on this thai peanut wrap every day for the rest of your life. 

here are the makings:

wheat tortilla, peanut sauce, brown rice, sliced cucumbers, sliced mango, grated carrot, chopped green onions, fresh basil leaves, fresh chopped cilantro.*

the scoop on the peanut sauce: use 1 part peanut butter, 1 part coconut milk and 1/2 part soy sauce. I'm exactly not sure about this though. play around. we started with half peanut butter, half soy sauce but it was gross so we added coconut milk and peanut butter until it got better. trader joes probably has some kind of tasty peanut sauce that would be even better and way less work--if you're among the fortunate few in its vicinity. 

time to get down to business. 

and one more thing. remember, THIS IS A FLAVOR EXPLOSION, people! don't skimp on the ingredients just because you "don't like cilantro" or something.* every flavor counts.

including srirachi, obviously. 

*if you're a boy--or a meat-loving girl--you could definitely beef it up with some chicken or shrimp...or beef. 

**which i have a hard time believing in the first place. don't get me started about people who "don't like red sauce/maple syrup/tomatoes/etc." it's mental--get over it and expand your palate.
