Quick Peanut Noodles with Bell Peppers

Here is another great Fake Out Take Out recipe. It's seriously simple with tons of flavors + textures. The crunch from the raw peppers, warmth of the pasta + that thick + rich peanut sauce. Garnish always with fresh herbs, sesame seeds + roasted peanuts. SO good.

Eat right away. The pasta will absorb the sauce very quickly. It's perfect with my Healthier Gluten Free Sesame Chicken + Honey Chicken Bites with Charred Green Beans

Oh, did I mention this pasta is great cold. Rinse the pasta with cold water after you drain it + toss with sauce + peppers. Delish!

In a pot of boiling water, add the noodles. Cook according to the package instructions.

Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce. Combine peanut butter, coconut aminos, sesame oil, broth, coconut milk, garlic, ginger + chili sauce in a medium sauce pot.
