My favorite take out food is thai food. I love it. I could eat it every day. I generally stick with the same types of things but every now and then I'll get something with a peanut sauce and it's just divine. Alot of times in the middle of the day I feel like I want some thai noodles or something but the thought of lugging all the kids into a restaurant doesn't appeal to me. So this is perfect. These are not exactly a thai noodle but it certainly fills my need for something from a thai restaurant in a pinch and really, what mom doesn't have a package of ramen noodles on hand for emergency lunches.
Ingredients:
1 pkg chicken flavored Ramen noodles
(including flavor packet)
1 T soy sauce
2 T peanut butter (I prefer chunky but smooth is fine)
2 teaspoon Sriacha
(optional - vegetables such as peas)
Prepare ramen according to package directions. Drain alot of the liquid, leaving just enough to create a sauce. Return pan to low heat and add all other ingredients. Stirring until just combined. Remove from heat and enjoy.
This is a great stand alone lunch or it would make a great side dish to some stir fried veggies and or steamed tofu or chicken.
