Spicy Peanut Noodles

October 8, 2009

I want to start off tonight’s post by thanking my mom for the wonderful, fresh produce from her garden. The other day, she gave me a mini red pepper, hot peppers, and some yellow string beans. Score! :-D

I also want to thank Nasoya for their delicious Chinese Style Noodles!

Mal and I were both BIG fans of these babies. We’ve already brainstormed a bunch of yummy ideas for future noodle meals.

To flavor the meal, I whipped up an easy peanut sauce. Unfortunately, I didn’t take any specific measurements– I just threw some different ingredients together until it tasted good!

In the peanut sauce:

  • Peanut butter
  • Soy sauce
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Ground ginger
  • Agave nectar

The hot peppers gave the meal a little kick to it! ;-)

I was really hungry tonight! I gobbled down my portion!

I’m relaxing with the boys tonight.

Good night!

I did a lentil salad using a sauce just like that (sans balsamic, although that sounds like a great addition!) and it was fanatastic…

Hey Tina,

You should try this sauce recipe from Mark Bittman: http://bitten.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/01/featured-recipe-roasted-vegetables-thai-style/#more-4169

The best peanut sauce I’ve made!! I think it could go even spicier than the recipe calls for…

Dinner looks delicious. I don’t think I’ve ever had yellow string beans. Do they taste the same as the green ones?

Amazingly, I have never seen these noodles before–I will have to keep my eye out for them. They sound delish!

Gotta love noodles that make dinner super easy. I don’t think there’s much better than a dinner you can throw together quickly, and yet still tastes amazing and like you’ve been slaving for hours in the kitchen.

I don’t really eat spaghetti much anymore but I have been wanting to get some sort of noodles back in my life, so I will have to try those! I’ve also never made my own peanut sauce, hmm…
