Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by boiling a large pot of water. Once boiling, add the rice noodles and cook according to the package instructions for about 4-6 minutes, or until they're tender but still firm to the bite. Drain the noodles and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, soy sauce, maple syrup, and chili garlic sauce. Gradually mix in about 2-4 tablespoons of water to achieve a smooth consistency. Use a whisk to blend until well-combined.
  3. Place the cooked rice noodles in a large mixing bowl and pour the peanut sauce over them. Toss gently with tongs to ensure each strand is evenly coated.
  4. If desired, stir in your choice of sautéed or fresh vegetables now. Incorporate marinated tofu as well, mixing everything until well combined.
  5. Spoon the vegan peanut noodles into serving bowls and garnish with chopped peanuts, green onions, or sesame seeds. Serve warm.

Preparing the peanut sauce in advance can save time during busy weeknights. Store noodles and sauce separately to maintain texture.
