Ingredients

8 oz gluten free spaghetti or other pasta of choice

Garlic Sesame Sauce

¼ Cup tamari or soy sauce if not gf
3 Tablespoons vegetable broth or hot water
2 Tablespoons rice wine vinegar (can substitute apple cider vinegar)
¼ Cup tahini
3 Tablespoons creamy peanut butter (see notes)
3 cloves garlic minced, (or ½ teaspoon of garlic powder)
1 Tablespoon maple syrup
½ teaspoon powdered ginger
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 Tablespoon sriracha or chili garlic sauce

Toppings

2 Tablespoons sesame seeds
3 scallions chopped
2 tablespoons roasted peanuts (optional)
vegan protein of choice (see notes)

Instructions

Cook noodles to package directions.
Add all sauce ingredients to a bowl and stir until smooth.
When noodles are cooked, add them to a large bowl with the sauce.
Top with sesame seeds and scallions and serve.

Notes

Peanut Butter/Tahini: If the peanut butter is too hard which mine usually is when taking it out of the fridge, add a tablespoon of boiling water to it to melt.

Veggie Additions: Add some shredded carrots, cucumber, cabbage, celery to the finished noodles. You could also steam/saute some broccoli, mushrooms, bok choy, or spinach while the pasta is cooking and add it to the dish.

Protein Additions: Try topping this dish with crispy marinated tofu, tempeh crumbles, soy curls, teriyaki tempeh, tofu crumbles, or grilled tofu steaks.
