The Vegetables
- 1 Green Bell Pepper thinly sliced
- 1/2 Red Bell Pepper thinly sliced
- 3/4 Cup Matchstick or Shredded Carrots
- 1 Cup Cooked Edamame
- 1 Cup Broccoli or Cabbage Slaw
- 3 Bunches Scallions / Green Onions finely chopped

The Sauce

To start, bring a large pot of SALTED water to boil.
While water is heating up, prep your veggies as noted in ingredients.
Cook your noodles or pasta of choice until al dente (go by the box's directions).
While noodles are cooking, make the sauce. Combine everything into a small mixing bowl and whisk together until smooth and creamy. Taste, and adjust seasonings if necessary.
When noodles are done cooking, drain and rinse with cold water.
In a large bowl, add noodles and mix with the sauce. Then, mix in the veggies until everything is evenly coated.
Top with sesame seeds or extra scallions, if you'd like.
Enjoy!
