Zoodle Pad Thai [Vegan]

Ingredients

For the Pad Thai:

• 2 medium zucchinis
• 1 medium carrot
• 1/2 large bell pepper
• 1/2 cup purple cabbage
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 1/2 lime, juiced

For the Toppings:

• 1/2 cup bean sprouts
• A handful fresh coriander
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• A squeeze of lime juice

For the Peanut Sauce:

• 3 tablespoons peanut butter, smooth or crunchy
• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon maple syrup
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
• 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation

1. Spiralize the carrot and zucchini, then thinly slice the bell pepper and purple cabbage.
2. Heat coconut oil in a pan over medium heat and then add vegetables and lime juice. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly. Allow the vegetables to just soften, then transfer over to mixing bowl, and set aside.
3. For the sauce, add all the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl and whisk with a fork, until well combined. It should be a good consistency, however, if you feel it is too thick add more water.
4. Add 1/2 the sauce to vegetables that you set aside and stir in well.
5. Place in a single serving bowl, or divide among two, and add fresh toppings and extra sauce, if you want more flavor. Serve.
