Ingredients Needed
Zucchini: I absolutely love turning zucchini into noodles because it is tender and you can get nice, long noodles to soak up the beautiful peanut sauce. You can sometimes find them already in spirals at the store! This would also work with spiralized carrots or spaghetti squash! Red Cabbage: Slice it into this strips! It will get tender in the pan but still have a bit of crunch. Yellow & Green Bell Pepper: I like to use a combination of yellow and green pepper but you can use whichever bell pepper you have on hand! Green is a bit more bitter whereas yellow, orange and red bell peppers are sweeter. Garlic & Ginger: For aroma and flavor! Cilantro: Fresh cilantro is a must on top of these Thai peanut noodles. It adds so much freshness and flavor! Peanut Sauce: For a creamy Thai-inspired peanut sauce, combine creamy peanut butter, lime, soy sauce, water and honey.
