Ingredients
  

8 oz. rice noodles

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

1 tbsp lime juice

1 tbsp sesame oil

1 tsp fresh ginger, grated

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust for spice preference)

1 cup shredded carrots

1 bell pepper, thinly sliced (any color)

1 cup snap peas or snow peas

3 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

1/4 cup chopped cilantro (for garnish)

Crushed peanuts (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: Start by boiling a large pot of water. Cook the rice noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

    Prepare the Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the creamy peanut butter, soy sauce, honey (or maple syrup), lime juice, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of warm water to reach your desired consistency.

      Stir-Fry the Vegetables: In a large skillet or wok, heat a little oil over medium-high heat. Add the shredded carrots, sliced bell pepper, and snap peas. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

        Combine Everything: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the stir-fried vegetables. Pour the peanut sauce over the noodles and vegetables. Toss everything together until well coated and heated through.

          Serve: Portion the creamy Thai peanut noodles into bowls. Garnish each serving with sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, and crushed peanuts for added texture and flavor.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately, and enjoy your deliciously creamy and flavorful Thai peanut noodles!
