Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp soy sauce or 1 tbsp tamari
1 (8 oz) package tempeh
chili powder
8 oz soba noodles or 8 oz udon noodles or 8 oz linguine
1/2 cup natural-style peanut butter
2 tbsp lime juice
2 tbsp light brown sugar or 2 tbsp sucanat
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes or 1/4 tsp cayenne , to taste
1/4 cup hot water
8 oz mung bean sprouts
3 scallions, white and light green parts thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or 1/4 cup parsley
2 -3 tbsp finely chopped peanuts (optional)

Directions:

Make croutons: In a large skillet, heat oil and 1 tbs soy sauce over medium heat.
Break tempeh into small cubes and add to skillet.
Cook, stirring often, until nicely browned and crisp.
Sprinkly lightly with chili powder to taste and remove pan from heat.
Drain on paper if you prefer.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
Add noodles, stirring to prevent sticking.
Cook according to package directions, until al dente.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, lime juice, sugar, pepper flakes,, 2 tbs soy sauce, and water.
Set aside.
Drain noodles, rinse under cold water and drain again.
In a large bowl, combine noodles, bean sprouts, tempeh, scallions, cilantro, and peanuts.
Whisk dressing and pour over salad; toss to coat.
Serve at room temp.
Makes lovely leftovers.
***note:this peanut sauce recipe is excellent.
If you dont have the tempeh, just eat it with noodles, or vice versa.
If you cant get mung bean sprouts just skip them.
You could add cucumber or sliced carrots.
I eat the peanut sauce over a broccoli stir fry, it is so easy to whip up.
