SIMPLY ADDICTIVE
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I can never make a single batch - always have to double - they have a fabulous flavor, do NOT need peanut butter! My son is... allergic to peanuts, and these have more than enough flavor. Sometimes I add a bit of thai chili paste to pack a more powerful punch, but not necessary. Read more

Great for Parties
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have been making a recipe very similar to this one for years, I use angel hair pasta and it works just fine, sometimes I... add chicken (or make chicken and put it on the side if there will be vegetarians at the party). I think the key to this is to make it the day before and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight, all of the flavors really sink in that way. It's an easy recipe and really a crowd pleaser.Read more

Great Easy Dish
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I eat these noodles at the Whole Foods salad bar all the time. This recipe is almost exactly like theirs. I added cilantro,... sliced seeded cucumber slices, and topped it with a ginger soy marinated salmon filet. I can see it with tofu, chicken, or shrimp. It is delicious!Read more
