10 Minute Spicy Peanut Noodles

Ingredients for 1 serving 

1 serving noodles
Handful each of: shredded red cabbage and shredded carrots (or use cole slaw mix)
handful of snow peas
handful of whatever other veggies you like in your Asian-inspired dishes
few almonds, cashews or peanuts – chopped coarsely (optional)
1 Tbsp. coconut aminos
1 Tbsp. peanut butter or almond butter
1 Tbsp. chili garlic sauce (optional or to taste)
1 Tbsp. rice vinegar

Cook noodles according to package directions.

If desired, blanch carrots and cabbage (or other veggies) in a small amount of water. If you like crunch, leave them raw.

To make sauce, mix coconut aminos, peanut or almond butter, chili garlic sauce and rice vinegar.

Add a couple Tbsps of water.

Microwave for 1 minute. Stir. If consistency is not thin enough for your liking, add small amounts of water until you reach desired consistency.  

NOTE:  the sauce will tighten up after it sits for a couple minutes.

Mix noodles, veggies and sauce together. Enjoy!

Note: A lean protein of your choice can be added to this dish if a meat serving is desired.

Suggestions are tofu, grilled shrimp or salmon. Mix 1 Tbsp raw honey, 1 Tbsp coconut aminos, 1 tsp sesame oil and 1 tsp Sriracha.  Spread over protein. Grill or bake and serve over noodles.
