- lb whole grain pasta, cooked and rinsed with cold water
- 1 lb shredded "broccoli slaw" or similar
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
- 1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
- 1/3 cup maple syrup or brown sugar
- 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- up to 1/3 cup warm water
- 1 1/2 thumbs fresh or frozen ginger, chopped or grated can use dried
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped can use dried
- 1 dash sriracha or other hot sauce
While your pasta is cooking, whisk together the sauce ingredients and open your bag of shredded veggies.
Drain the pasta and run it under cold water.
Toss pasta with veggies and sauce. Enjoy!
If you can't find broccoli slaw, you can use cabbage or carrots. You could even use chopped romaine, I would I think. Of course you can also shred or chop your own vegetables, but I turn to this recipe when I need food to be FAST!
If you like your food more saucy, just scale up the sauce next time and make a note. Since the proportions are all equal, it's a cinch to do it.
