About
I really love a good cold noodle dish, especially with Asian flare and these Cold Peanut Noodles totally hit it on the head! Chinese noodles are tossed with a simple sauce made of peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce and a little water. To add to the flavors, colors and texture of these noodles I also tossed in some thinly sliced red bell peppers, shredded carrots, scallions and topped it all off with toasted sesame seeds.
