Introduction

My take on Thai sesame peanut noodles with veggies. An old faithful recipe for our "Meatless Mondays" though I often add cooked chicken or pork to this dish.

Ingredients

    3 cups cooked rice noodles
    2 cups fresh bean sprouts, washed and drained
    2 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced
    1 cup green bell pepper, sliced
    1 cup sweet red bell pepper, sliced
    1/2 cup red onion, sliced
    1 tbsp rice vinegar
    2 tsp sesame oil
    1 tsp safflower oil
    1/2 tsp garlic, minced
    1/2 tsp ginger root, minced

    Sesame Peanut Sauce
    2 tbsp soy sauce (reduced sodium recommended)
    1 tbsp rice vinegar
    1 tbsp lime juice

    1 tsp VE Teriyaki Seasoning

    Cilantro, chopped (garnish - optional)
    Peanuts, chopped (garnish - optional)

Tips

*Note - Add a little water to the sauce to thin it if needed (I often add at least 1 tbsp of water).

2. Combine ingredients for Sesame Peanut Sauce in a small dish and whisk until smooth (see tip). Set aside.
