These nutty noodles have it all- sweet, savory, crunchy and creamy. They are made with kids favorite ingredients (peanut butter & noodles!) and are super easy to prepare.
Substitute the veggies with your family’s favorites (shredded carrots or cucumber)! Top the noodles with chopped peanuts or toasted sesame seeds.
1 pound soba or spaghetti noodles
1 cup bean sprouts
1 cup snow peas, tips removed & cut in half on a diagonal

3 Tablespoons brown sugar
3 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
1 garlic clove, minced
red pepper flakes, to taste
1.) Cook the noodles according to package directions.
2.) While the pasta is cooking, place the peanut butter, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, water lime juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger and garlic in a food processor. Pulse until thoroughly blended. Add pepper flakes.
