  • Strainer
  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

Peanut Sauce

  • 3 tbsp cane juice crystals or brown sugar
  • 2 tsp water
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp natural peanut butter
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice

Bowl

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the rice noodles for 3–4 minutes until al dente.
  • Drain and rinse the noodles with cold water to stop the cooking process.
  • Toss the rinsed noodles with sesame oil to prevent sticking and set aside.
  • Blend peanut butter, lemon juice, sweetener, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and salt in a food processor or blender until smooth.
  • If the sauce is too thick, add water a teaspoon at a time and mix until it reaches your desired consistency.

  • Assemble bowls by layering noodles at the bottom, followed by the vegetables, crushed peanuts, and sesame seeds.
