Skinny Pad Thai

I am in love with pad thai and pretty much all asian food. Pad thai can be a pretty heavy meal and one you only enjoy on occasion. This recipe is only a little over 300 calories per serving and is as delicious as the real thing!

Ingredients: 

1 1/2 cups wide and flat rice noodles

2 tbs brown sugar

3 tbs lime juice

3 tbs soy sauce

1/8 tsp sriracha (optional)

1 tbs vegetable oil

3 green onions (white and green part cut and separated) 

1 garlic clove, minced

2 eggs beaten 

1/2 cup cilantro

1/4 cup chopped peanuts (or more)

Soak noodles according to package instructions. Drain.

In a small bowl whisk together brown sugar, lime juice, soy sauce and siriracha.

In a pan heat oil over medium heat. Add white part of green onions, garlic and cook for about 30 seconds stirring constantly. Add eggs and cook scrapping with a spatula. Once cooked set aside.

In a wok or large pan add noodles, green part of green onions and sauce. Cook for about a minute until sauce has covered all the noodles. Add egg mixture and toss to coat, breaking up eggs gently. 

Serve noodles topped with cilantro and peanuts. 

Yay!
