Definitely a keeper!

I wasn't planning on making dinner tonight since we still have leftover black bean soup and Kyle's going out, but I have felt like poo all day. Tired, dizzy, and blah. When I feel like that, I always want some starchy carbs. Then I remembered a recipe for peanut butter noodles that my friend Chris posted, which then led me to feel like if I didn't get peanut butter noodles, I may not survive.

I followed the recipe pretty closely, but made a few substitutions to make it easier. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken, and instead of fresh ginger and garlic, I used powdered. I added shredded carrots and some chopped cilantro, and also used sliced almonds instead of peanuts.

Let me tell you...you HAVE to try this. It was SO good!! You could add all kinds of steamed/stir fried vegetables to make it healthier and to feed more people. I may or may not have eaten the entire thing. Heehee.

Once again, I neglected to take a picture of the final product! It didn't look like a food magazine, but it tasted incredible. These are the rice noodles I used.
They were great and tasted just like noodles from a Thai restaurant! Seriously...try this recipe. YUM!!!
