Pad Thai
Boil 4 servings (approx 4 cups cooked) of pasta according to package directions, run under cool water to stop the cooking and set aside.
2 cups Broccoli Florets
1 zucchini peeled and chopped
1 cup sliced carrots
1/4 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup green peas,
1 whole red pepper sliced,
1 T minced garlic
Saute above vegetables or your favorite vegetables for 10 minutes, or to desired tenderness.
In separate container mix up
2 tablespoons peanut butter
4 tablespoons warm water
1/4 tsp dried ginger
2 tablespoons of low sodium soy sauce
Once everything is cooked, combine the pasta, vegetables, and peanut butter sauce, toss gently until well combined. Serve in a bowl and top with cashews or peanuts, and scallions.
I enjoy this dish with just the vegetables but you can certainly add shrimp or whatever protein you like.
Prepared as above this makes 4 servings, approx 320 calories each.
