Easy, versatile and delicious!
This simple and quick meal has become a regular on our table lately. Most of the ingredients are pantry staples.
While the recipe calls for broccoli and bell pepper, you could potentially add other veggies based on what you like and what you have on hand. Julienned carrot or maybe some snow peas would go great with these noodles. Don’t worry about the sriacha making the noodles too spicy. The peanut butter really helps to mellow it, but you can always use less (or more, if you like it spicy).
