Instructions
Cook the spaghetti or rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sriracha, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and water or coconut milk. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Set the peanut sauce aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the broccoli florets, julienned carrots, and sliced bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Lower the heat to medium and stir the prepared peanut sauce into the skillet with the vegetables. Mix well until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until the noodles are fully coated in the peanut sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Divide the noodles between serving bowls and garnish with sesame seeds, chopped green onions, and crushed peanuts if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
