This is so delicious! I just finished making this for a pot luck tomorrow and I know it will taste even better after it chills in the fridge overnight. I didn't change a thing except omit the parsley - I don't really think it fits in this recipe.

Absolutely delicious, I cut the recipe in half and used combination of snow pea pods and sugar snap peas. Will definitely add to menus.

Everybody loves this, when I make it! I've taken it to a few potlucks, and I make it for us at home.
I have found that, by rinsing the spaghetti well in cold water after cooking it, I can use much less oil in the dressing, and the salad still tastes great! Even better, I think. I use no more than 1/4 cup oil, and I suspect I could bring that down to two or three tablespoons.
As with all recipes, the quality of the ingredients makes a difference. Fresh, plump sugar snap peas and either home-grown red bell peppers or those baby bell peppers. Most of the supermarket large red bell peppers I've found have little flavor.
I, too, use cilantro in place of parsley. I like cilantro, and the flavor of it goes well with the Asian flavors of this salad.
Also, I find that breaking the spaghetti in half before boiling it makes the salad easier to serve.
This recipe should be tagged "vegan", so that people looking for vegan recipes can easily find it.

Tasted great, and easy to prepare, just lots of little ingredients, but well worth it. Perfect for a warm day.

Very good flavor but too much oil. Next time I make it I will eliminate the vegetable oil.

Made this last night and thought it was great! I added a bit of Sriracha sauce for spiciness. When I make it again, I will reduce the amount of oil (probably by 1/4 cup as suggested by other reviewers, and add cilantro!

This is out of this world delicious. I cut back on the oil and used canola oil instead of vegetable. I also added sliced water chestnuts, shredded carrots, a little bit of red cabbage and edamame because I love that extra crunch. Definitely a winner if you like a peanuty sauce!

Never made the recipe before the official revision to 1 lb. pasta. Having said that, in a word, this is AWESOME! Thanks for yet another terrific recipe, Ms. Barefoot!

Awesome Noodle Salad. It was a hit in our house hold. But the recipe makes a lot of sauce, so I forze most of it for next time.
