PB Moodoos! (Peanut Butter Noodles)
“Here are my ingredients. I usually just use cucumber and carrots but I saw broccoli slaw today and decided to change it up a little bit.
2. Cook the noodles, grill the chicken breast ( I dont put salt or pepper on it since the sauce is salty already), cut the cucumber into discs and then sliver, cut the green onion.
3. The SAUCE –
1/4 cups of peanut butter (I like unsalted TJ’s peanut butter)
1/4 cups Trader Joes soyaki ( the island version works too)
1/4 cups water
2 teaspoons of sesame oil
whisk together!
4. Put the noodles in a bowl, chicken, cucumbers, carrots, sesame seeds and the sauce on top!”
Thanks Christina for sharing that! I didn’t have all the fresh veggies and I went more a Hot Thai dish route, but it was yummy and gobbled up by all!
I made the sauce in the bowl, tinkered with it a bit til the taste was where I liked it, (added a splash of soy milk, a bit more PB and a splash of soy)
(I also poured a little of the sauce over the raw chicken pieces before cooking.)
Strained the noodles and threw them into the sauce bowl hot and all, got all the noodles covered in sauce and then placed the coated noodles in a pretty serving bowl and added the chicken on top with some green onion.
So as you can see a cold/veggie/summer salad version and a warm, Thai dish all in one! The adults all added red pepper flakes to ours for the full HOT & SPICY deal!
