This Pad Thai recipe I find easy to make & extremely tasty. I have ulcerative colitis so I'm always trying to create of find low fiber recipes that won't hurt my stomach. I love Pad Thai but restaurant food is hard to digest. This tasted just as good as Pad Thai that we use to order at a restaurant in the neighborhood except it didn't hurt my stomach to eat it!

8 ounces rice noodles
2 teaspoons peanut oil
