30 minute Saucy and Creamy Pad Thai noodles. I put a spin on the traditional Pad Thai Noodle recipe by making the sauce extra creamy & adding peanut butter to the sauce. You can also sub out the linguine rice noodles and veggies and just use what you have at home. As long as the sauce is the same it will still be super flavorful and tasty!

Notes

Make it Your Own

You will notice that the noodles will soak up the sauce immediately. If you like your dish to be extra saucy, double the Creamy Pad Thai peanut sauce. Or only mix half of the sauce in the pan. Save the other half to drizzle on top of your noodles before eating.
For a spicier noodle dish add an extra teaspoon of sriracha to the peanut sauce.
Substitute or add any of the vegetables to the stir fry.
