fresh and simple

This dish was so simple, but so tasty.  I think I could eat it everyday.  I love asian food and I love fresh food, so it was the perfect combination for me.

In order to make this dish, you first have to go to Trader Joe's and buy this:


Then you are ready to make this:

Spicy peanut noodles with veggies

Recipe:
1 bag broccoli slaw
1 medium cucumber diced
whole wheat angel hair pasta
spicy peanut vinaigrette (above)
2 T soy sauce
handful of cilantro finely chopped
1 lime

Saute the bag of broccoli slaw in a little spicy peanut vinaigrette for a few minutes until just slightly tender and remove from heat.  Added cooked pasta (I cooked about 3 handfuls), soy sauce, cucumber, cilantro, the juice of 1 lime, and more vinaigrette until moist enough - I used about 1/2 the bottle.  Sprinkle with a little cilantro and eat up!  So fast and so good.

It was room temp when we ate it but it would be good cold too.  Other good additions would be chopped green onions or chopped peanuts.
