Gluten-Free Vegan Pad Thai with Romanesco Recipe

Servings: 4

Ingredients:

• 4 cakes of Lotus Ramen (gluten-free)
• 1 container of San-J Peanut Sauce
• 2 large carrots, shredded
• 1 head of Romanesco, chopped
• 4 green onions, sliced
• 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
   • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
   • Add the chopped romanesco and sauté for 2 minutes.
   • Incorporate the minced garlic, shredded carrots, and chopped bell pepper.
   • Continue to sauté for an additional 3 minutes, adding half of the sliced green onions towards the end.
2. Cook the Ramen:
   • Follow the package instructions to cook the Lotus Ramen noodles. Once cooked, rinse and drain thoroughly.
3. Combine and Season:
   • If your pan is large enough, add the drained noodles directly to the pan with the sautéed vegetables. Otherwise, combine them in a large mixing bowl.
   • Pour 3/4 to the entire container of San-J Thai Peanut Sauce over the noodles and vegetables, depending on your taste preference, and mix well to combine.
4. Garnish and Serve:
   • Stir in the remaining green onions and chopped cilantro.
   • Serve the Pad Thai warm, enjoying the blend of textures and flavors.

Tips:

• Sauce Adjustment: Start with less sauce and gradually add more to suit your flavor preferences and dietary needs.
• Serving Suggestion: For an extra protein boost, consider adding tofu or chickpeas.
