Creamy Peanut Noodles

Step 1

Start by whisking together the peanut butter, soy sauce, sriracha, maple syrup, and rice vinegar (this is your peanut sauce). Set aside.

Step 2

Heat sesame oil in a large wok (a large saucepan should work too, you may just have to adjust cook time) over high heat.

Step 3

Add chopped tofu or tempeh and let cook for 4-5 minutes (mixing periodically to ensure it does not burn).

Step 4

While the tempeh is cooking, cook the noodles according to the instructions on the back of the packaging.

Step 5

Turn the heat of the wok down to low-medium heat and add in the chopped green onions and kale. Mix.

Step 6

Add in about 1 tbsp. of water and continue mixing. Let cook until the kale gets semi-wilted and the water has boiled off.

Step 7

Add ~2/3 of the peanut sauce (we'll use the rest later) to the tofu or tempeh and veggies and mix.

Step 8

Add the cooked noodles to the wok and mix well.

Step 9

Split evenly amongst two plates.

Step 10

Heat up the rest of the peanut sauce in the microwave or saucepan until warm.

Step 11

Drizzle both plates of noodles with the extra sauce and top with more green onions and sesame seeds (if you desire)! Eat up!
