Spicy Peanut Veggie Noodles
Peter said I had to write down the recipe for this at least three times while eating it and then he made a spreadsheet in Google to track recipes just to house this one.
I swiped it from Smitten Kitchen and tweaked it just a bit.
First I oven roasted, in a bit of olive oil and soy sauce:
1 zucchini, sliced
1 head of broccoli
1 large spicy red pepper
5 cloves whole garlic
2 shallots
Then you make Smitten Kitchen's great sauce:
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup warm water
1 tablespoon chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 medium garlic clove, chopped-- I bumped it to 4 cloves
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons Asian toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes- I bumped it to two teaspoons
Then you make a bunch of pasta, mix things, and the magic happens. Yes, it lacks the protein tofu and sesame seeds would add, but it doesn't lack in flavor. Maybe this sauce would even make tofu yummy.
