Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato, spiralized* Pad Thai Noodles
- 2 cups carrots, chopped Pad Thai Noodles
- 2 cups cauliflower florets Pad Thai Noodles
- 1 small red pepper, julienned Pad Thai Noodles
- cilantro, to garnish Pad Thai Noodles
- 1/4 cup grapeseed oil (or olive oil) Pad Thai Sauce
- 1/4 cup tamari Pad Thai Sauce
- 2 tbsp almond butter Pad Thai Sauce
- 1 tbsp maple syrup Pad Thai Sauce
- 1/2 lime, freshly squeezed Pad Thai Sauce
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced Pad Thai Sauce
- 1-inch knob of ginger, minced Pad Thai Sauce
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes Pad Thai Sauce
- Sea salt, to taste Pad Thai Sauce
- 1-2 tbsp grapeseed oil Pad Thai Noodles
Instructions
- Prepare sweet potato, carrots, cauliflower and red pepper as stated. Set ingredients aside.
- Pour Pad Thai Sauce ingredients into a medium size bowl or measuring cup and whisk thoroughly. Set aside.
- Preheat a large skillet on medium heat and drizzle grapeseed oil in pan. Once hot, begin to sauté the cauliflower and carrots for 5 minutes, followed by the red pepper for 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Using the same pan, toss in the sweet potato noodles (you might want to drizzle it with a bit more grapeseed oil at this point). Toss it in the pan with tongs for 8 minutes until the sweet potato noodles look a bit glossy (but try to avoid overcooking them).
- Once cooked, add the sweet potato noodles to a bowl with the other vegetables and pour Pad Thai Sauce all over it. Mix with tongs to ensure the sauce covers every part of it.
- Plate, garnish with cilantro and serve!
