Ingredients

3/4 pound spinach linguine or whole-wheat spaghetti
2 cups (about 9 ounces) broccoli florets
2 cups (about 6 ounces) snow peas, trimmed
2 cups (about 6 ounces) sugar snap peas, trimmed
1/2 cup natural creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 scallion, cut into pieces
3/4 inch fresh ginger, finely grated
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup shelled unsalted peanuts

Directions

Cook the pasta in a large pot of water according to the directions on the package. Drain and rinse with cold water. While the pasta is cooking put the broccoli in a steamer basket over a large pot of boiling water and steam it for 3 minutes. Add the snow peas and sugar snap peas and steam for 2 minutes more.

Toast the peanuts in a dry pan over a medium heat until they become fragrant, about 3 minutes. Set them aside to cool. Make the sauce by pureeing the peanut butter, soy sauce, water, vinegar, lime juice, scallion, ginger, sugar and red pepper flakes in a food processor or blender until smooth.

Right before serving, toss the pasta with 3/4 cup of the peanut sauce. Divide into 6 serving bowls and top each serving with the vegetables. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the vegetables. Coarsely chop the peanuts, sprinkle them on top and serve.

Yumness! Sauce needed a little tweaking...
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

The sauce, when followed identically to the recipe, was a little sour to us. We added more brown sugar and rooster sauce and... red pepper flakes and the sourness went away. Maybe I got a couple of bad limes? Who knows. Also, I FORGOT TO TOAST THE PEANUTS AND PUT THEM ON TOP! What a complete idiot. Anyway, I liked the taste a lot. Ate it with chicken. Will add the nuts tomorrow for leftovers. Thanks for the recipe, Ellie! <3Read more

Excellent!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this receipe today for lunch. It was very easy, took very little time, and was delicious. The best part was the sauce,... however I added a little cayane pepper for some extra heat. Next time when I make this I may add another 1/2 cup of the green veggies.Read more
