Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz rice noodles
- 1 medium, thinly sliced red bell pepper
- 1 large, julienned carrot
- 1 medium, sliced into thin half-moons cucumber
- 1 cup, shredded purple cabbage
- 1 cup, shelled edamame
- 2 chopped green onions
- 1 cup, roughly chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 cup crushed peanuts
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp peanut butter
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp, freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp sriracha
- 2 tbsp water
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions, usually 4-6 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to prevent sticking. Set aside.
Prepare the vegetables by thinly slicing the red bell pepper, julienning the carrot, slicing the cucumber into thin half-moons, and shredding the purple cabbage.
In a large salad bowl, combine the cooked rice noodles, red bell pepper, carrot, cucumber, purple cabbage, edamame, green onions, and fresh cilantro.
To make the dressing, whisk together soy sauce, peanut butter, rice vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, honey, sriracha, and water in a small bowl until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with an extra tablespoon of water if needed.
Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss well to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Sprinkle the crushed peanuts on top for an added crunch.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
