B) Peanut Sesame Noodles

As promised, here's a recipe blog. Though I may brave the elements to barbeque, some of you may not be willing to stand in the 50 degree clime in order to get the perfect taste of summer. So try this out...



What You'll Need:
Spaghetti
Peanut Butter
Soy Sauce
Hoison Sauce
Minced Garlic
Broccoli
Carrots
Snow Peas
Scallions
Sesame Seeds

What to Do:
1. Make Spaghetti as you normally would and drain.
2. In a small bowl mix a large dollop of Peanut Butter, a small dollop (a heaping TBSP) of Hoison Sauce, and stir. Add Soy sauce and stir until smooth. If the mix is too thick to stir into pasta, add a little more soy sauce. Stir the whole mixture into pasta (the heat of which will melt the peanut butter making it easier to stir).
3. In a frying pan, brown some minced garlic. Add in carrots, broccoli and toss for about 2 minutes. Add in snow peas and scallions. You're just cooking these veggies to make them warmed up. Spoon onto the top of sauce-topped pasta. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and if you like red pepper flakes.
4. Serve in Asian-inspired dishes, like my square shaped bowls a gift from my friend Holly who also gifted me with this advice for Asian-inspired meals.
