  • Vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free
  • Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner!

Ingredients you’ll need

Ingredients to make cozy peanut butter noodles
  • Glass noodles – you can also use rice noodles, ramen noodles, or spaghetti
  • Garlic – for this recipe you will need fresh garlic
  • Green onions – use fresh for balancing the peanut butter flavor
  • Peanut butter – use any type of peanut butter you like. Creamy and soft works best for a creamier and softer texture. If you need to substitute, you can use any nut butter
  • Soy sauce – to make this recipe gluten-free, I used this gluten-free soy sauce
  • Maple syrup – for balancing the peanut butter flavor. For a non-vegan option, you can use honey or brown sugar
  • Olive oil – I like to use extra-virgin olive oil, but you can substitute for any oil you like
  • Sesame oil – for flavor and a twist
  • Sriracha and chili flakes – I use sriracha and chili flakes for flavor and spice. If you don’t like spicy food, you can leave this ingredient out

How to make creamy peanut butter spicy noodles

First, cook your noodles in boiling water, according to package directions. Then, in a bowl, mix the peanut butter, gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, maple syrup, sriracha, chili flakes, and water (if needed).

In a medium-sized pan or pot, add the olive oil, and sauté the garlic. Then add the noodles and the peanut sauce, and mix together. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water.

Serve hot. Top it off with crushed peanuts, extra green onions, and sesame seeds.

Variations

Make a creamier sauce if the peanut butter you’re using is too thick – just add a splash of water to thin the sauce.

Swap peanut butter if for whatever reason you don’t like it. Substitute it for any nut butter instead.

Add your favorite vegetables, I like to add sautéed broccoli, carrots, spinach or bok choy… sauté them together with the garlic and keep going from there.

Remove the sriracha and chili flakes if you don’t like spicy food.

How to store creamy peanut butter spicy noodles

Store any leftover creamy peanut butter spicy noodles in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat on the stovetop in a pan or in the microwave. If the noodles are too dry, add a bit of water to help loosen them.

I’m back!!! - after some months finishing my masters program, starting a new job, and moving twice… and finally I’m back!!! This makes me very happy! Cooking makes me feel very much at home and I had missed it.. a lot! So a big thank YOU for being here 🙆🏼‍♀️😁

As most of you know, black beans are one of my favourite foods. So it was just natural to make these black bean brownies. They are incredibly moist, soft, and fudgy and have become one of my favourites. I’ve tried them several times and I’ve finally found the perfect ingredient ratio. Don’t worry they don’t taste like black beans!

These are gluten free, low in sugar, and high in protein and fiber. Can’t wait for you to try them!
