Peanut Butter Noodles

Peanut Butter Noodles

Peanut butter noodles have long been a comfort food for me. I used to love the taste of thick cold noodles, drenched in a peanut buttery sesame sauce, so filling and delicious! Being older and more health conscious, I wanted to make it more healthful. I added more vegetables and used only whole, plant-based ingredients in this recipe. I used a traditional peanut butter noodle recipe, and made it my own by adding lots of colorful, whole vegetables.
