Light Peanut Sauce with Rice Noodles

This is such an easy sauce to make. It can stored and saved for not only noodles but a salad dressing, chicken sauce, fish sauce or more. You can even add cooked chicken or shrimp for a protein. Its light and fresh and a peanut butter lovers dream. If the sauce is a little runny just add a scoop of peanut butter or vise versa.

Ingredients:
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
1/2 lime, juiced
1 garlic clove
1 1/4 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoon honey or agave
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, plus more for topping
1 package of Rice Noodles – I used Pad Thai Noodles
1/2 cup roasted peanuts, chopped

fresh Cilantro, for garnish

In a food processor, combine all ingredients and pulse until well combined. Add more water if its too thick for your liking. Or if you like a thicker sauce, use less water.

Cook rice noodles according to package.

Toss the noodles with peanut sauce. Add as much or not as much peanut sauce as you like. Top with roasted peanuts, red pepper flakes and cilantro.
