I wouldn't make this receipe, as I don't feel the info is accurate. Pix doesn't even resemble ingredients. Don't see the carrots or broccoli and the peanuts aren't listed as an ingredient so how can the calories be correct? When you look up the detailed calories, butter is listed. Where's that go?

I made this for 2 by reducing the pasta to 2 servings. I substituted snap peas for the broccoli & carrots, skipped the additional protein, but added dry roasted peanuts. I also reduced the sriracha sauce to 1/2 tsp but used the 1 tbs peanut butter and 1 tbs soy sauce. The result was yummy!	Submitted by: DAYSPRING-STAR (9/9/12) report inappropriate
The sodium calculations appears to be incorrect, i.e. too low. One ounce of soy sauce alone (not accounting for sodium in other ingredients) would make the sodium amount to be about 450 mg. in each serving.	Submitted by: JULIJULINN (9/9/12) report inappropriate
I can't wait to try this. I'm going to add julienne cucumbers for crunch and some chopped peanuts for protein!!	Submitted by: BEACHY_ (9/8/12) report inappropriate
Its a great quick/cheap dish. I used silken tofu for the protein and I sauteed it before mixing it into the noodles so it wasn't so mushy. If I were to do it again (which I am) I would use firm/extra firm tofu instead. Otherwise, great recipe!	Submitted by: NIKKIROKO (7/7/12) report inappropriate
I wish the picture was of Chef Meg's recipe! Where are the carrots and broccoli? Where did the actual nuts come from? So does the nutritional value relate to what is pictured or the recipe. For the discussion, 2 Tbsp = 1 fl oz. while 4 Tbsp = 2oz or 1/4 cup.	Submitted by: TERRY1324 (7/5/12) report inappropriate
thanks for the heads-up on the sodium!	Submitted by: WENDYEMYERS (7/5/12) report inappropriate
add more veg. and omit the meat and lower calories	Submitted by: MARYJOHANNAH (6/19/12) report inappropriate
Sub 1 Tbsp tahini (sesame paste) in lieu of peanut butter. Tahini needs to be thinned with water anyways so you'll get more sauce for fewer calories.	Submitted by: THEEASYKILL30 (6/19/12) report inappropriate
Very good! My husband raved about it and fought me for leftovers. I would probably like it better with almost double the sauce, but then it wouldn't be as low calories ;)	Submitted by: JAMIE_CHRISTINE (3/15/12) report inappropriate
a great hi-protein dinner. Great for us gastric bypass members.	Submitted by: HATHOR2000 (1/17/12) report inappropriate
I usually like Chef Meg's recipes, but this one just didn't work for me. It was hard to stir the peanut butter in, and I didn't like the spicy chili sauce I used because I couldn't find sriracha sauce. By the way, I used shrimp as my protein instead of the options shown here.	Submitted by: SEPPIESUSAN (1/29/11) report inappropriate
So quick! So yummy! I used a whole package of noodles, so I tripled the sauce. I also used sweet chili sauce instead of sriracha, and I did 2 parts low sodium soy and 1 part teriyaki. It still had too much soy for my liking, so I'll cut it down again next time.	Submitted by: 4KRISSI (1/16/11) report inappropriate
Check the sodium content - FAST!! 2TBS soy sauce = 1805 mg sodium. Divided by 4 servings = 451 mg....for the soy sauce alone.	Submitted by: KAUAI-CAROLANN (1/12/11) report inappropriate
