Ingredients

Noodle Salad

  • 8 ounces noodles (any vegan long variety)
  • 1 red pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 head red cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 4 green onions, sliced
  • 3 carrots, finely sliced
  • 1/2 of an English cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 a bunch of cilantro, chopped

Peanut Sauce

Garnish

  • peanuts, chopped
  • green onions
  • cilantro

Instructions

  • Heat a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, stir the sauce ingredients together to break up the peanut butter. I like to use a small mason jar for this to give it a vigorous shake just before pouring it over the noodle salad. Let the sauce sit in the fridge for a few minutes while preparing the other ingredients so the flavors can come together.
  • Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook them to al dente according to their package instructions. Rinse them immediately after draining them to stop the cooking process and to keep them from sticking.
  • Cut all of the vegetables and place them in a large mixing bowl while the noodles are cooking.
  • Shake the sauce and pour it into the large bowl along with the noodles. Toss everything together until it’s well combined. Enjoy the salad right away or chill it for later.
