Ingredients
  

8 oz. rice noodles or whole wheat noodles

1 cup broccoli florets

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 cup sugar snap peas, trimmed

1 cup shredded carrots

2 green onions, sliced

1 cup bean sprouts

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon garlic, minced

1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)

3 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium recommended)

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon chili paste (adjust for heat preference)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the rice noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Set aside.

    Steam the Vegetables: In a steamer or pot with a small amount of water, steam the broccoli, sugar snap peas, and carrots for about 5-7 minutes or until tender-crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.

      Make the Peanut Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), chili paste, and minced garlic until smooth and well combined. If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon of warm water at a time until you reach the desired consistency.

        Combine Ingredients: In a large serving bowl, add the cooled noodles and drizzle with sesame oil. Toss gently to combine. Add the steamed vegetables, bean sprouts, and sliced green onions. Pour the peanut sauce over the top, tossing everything together until well coated.

          Serve: Divide the noodle veggie mixture into individual bowls. Garnish each bowl with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and fresh cilantro for an extra touch.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy this colorful and tasty Peanut Noodle Veggie Bowl, or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for a delicious meal prep option.
