Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.

Something yummy for Friday: Peanut Noodles

How can I not blog about food?  I'm obsessed.  So here goes, every Friday, one favorite recipe, just for you.  And it won't always be easy, healthy, vegan, etc.  But sometimes it will :)

Peanut Butter Noodles
Super duper easy, fast and portable.  11 year olds can make this dish for sure.  

a couple cloves of minced garlic
1/2 cup of pb (or cashew butter)
4 tbsp rice vinegar (or apple cider)
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil (if you put this in first, then the honey, the honey slides out of the measuring spoon easier)
hot sauce to taste  (we like Frank's Red Hot)
grated fresh ginger (optional)
Mix all up, add in enough hot water to get it the consistency you like.  For topping rice or dipping tofu or veggie sticks, you might leave it thicker.  For noodles, make it runnier.

Add chopped cukes, broccoli, shredded carrots and cabbage if you like.  Chopped peanuts or cashews or toasted sesame seeds are good on top.

Serve over fried tofu, veggies, noodles or rice.  Or use as a dipping sauce.

This is especially nice to take along, it doesn't need refrigeration.  It's also good for colds (no dairy, lots of raw garlic and ginger).
You can double it and freeze some.

Enjoy!
