Vegetable Pad Thai


1 8 oz box Brown Rice Noodles
3 TBS Tamari or Soy Sauce
1 TBS Fresh Lemon Juice
1 TBS Honey, Brown Rice Syrup or Agave
1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
Peanut Oil
1/2 C Peanuts, ground
2 Carrots. grated
1 C shredded Red Cabbage
1 C Mung Bean Sprouts
1 bunch Green Onions, diced
4 Shiitake mushrooms, sliced
3 Cloves of Garlic, finely diced
1/4 C chopped Cilantro
8 oz Organic Teriyaki Tofu, cubed

In a small bowl, combine Tamari, Lemon Juice, Honey, Red Pepper Flakes and set aside. Fill a stock pot with enough water to cook the noodles and bring to a boil. 

In the meantime, Add a few tablespoons of peanut oil to a large, deep saute pan. Add all ingredients, except for the tofu, peanuts and cilantro. Saute over medium heat until the veggies start to soften.  Add the tofu, peanuts and Tamari sauce. 

Add your noodles to the boiling water. Be careful to not over cook them! They should only take a few minutes. Drain and add to the saute pan. Combine well with the veggies, sauce and cilantro. Serves 4.

Notes: You can use other vegetables, like broccoli, zucchini, etc. Adjust the spiciness by decreasing or adding more red pepper flakes.
