Ingredients

For the noodles:

1 lb ramen noodles (or spaghetti of choice)
¼ cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
Juice of 1 lime
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
Water as needed to thin

To garnish:

Sliced green onions
Chopped cilantro
Sesame seeds

Instructions

Cook your pasta according to package instructions, then make your peanut sauce.
For the peanut sauce, whisk together all the ingredients until combined. Add water 1 tablespoon at a time and continue to whisk until you have a creamy/running dressing.
Once the pasta is done, drain it and give it a quick rinse under cold water. Add back to the pot and toss with sauce.
Plate the pasta and add any additional toppings or protein you'd like (I recommend my Asian Turkey Meatballs!).
Top with sliced green onions and fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

If you have any leftover peanut noodles, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To reheat, simply place them in the microwave or a skillet with a splash of water to loosen the sauce. I don’t recommend freezing this recipe.
