Easy Plant Based Pad Thai

 






This is an easy and delicious Pad Thai for a gathering or picnic.  The sauce takes only three ingredients to make.  I made it easier for myself when I prepared it for the picnic today of the Plant Based Pittsburgh Group at Boyce Park (see photos below) and used coleslaw from a bag since I did not feel like cutting any vegetables.  I also used dry garlic flakes.  It is a flexible dish,  You can use any noodles as well as any vegetables.  You can eat it hot or cold.  Enjoy!

  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon garlic chili paste
  • 1/4 cup water or vegetable broth
  • 8 oz cooked rice noodles or other noodles (I used rice noodles I cooked in 4 cups water and 1/2 tsp salt in an instant pot for 1 minute and 4 min natural release.  I then drained and rinsed it).
  • sliced green onions from two stalks
  • 1 -2 cups coleslaw or any thinly sliced vegetables
  • juice of 1/2 lime
  • 1 tablespoon garlic flakes.  


Sauce:  Place the peanut butter, soy sauce, garlic chili paste and water or broth in a small bowl and warm it up in the microwave for a minute. 

Assembly: Place the cooked noodles in a large bowl and add the sauce to it and mix.  Add the rest of the ingredients.
