Vegan Pad Thai is a popular dish that originates from Thailand, and is made with stir-fried rice noodles, vegetables, and a variety of seasonings and spices. Although traditionally not vegan, this recipe doesn't use any animal-based ingredients, such as meat or fish sauce, and replaces them with plant-based alternatives.

It's a delicious and nutritious meal that is easy to make at home. It is a great option for those following a plant-based diet or looking for a flavorful and healthy dish!

Ingredients

  • 1 14-oz. package rice noodles
  • 3 T. toasted sesame oil, divided
  • 1 lb. broccoli florets, divided
  • 8 oz. white mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1/3 c. soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • ½ c. peanut butter
  • 1-2 T. Sriracha sauce
  • Hot water, if needed

Instructions

1

Prepare rice noodles according to package directions and set aside.

2

Heat 2 tablespoons sesame oil over medium-high heat in a large frying pan or wok. Add vegetables and cook, stirring continually, for approximately 5-6 minutes, or until crisp tender. Remove from heat and set aside.

3

In a medium bowl, whisk soy sauce, peanut butter, Sriracha and remaining sesame oil together until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a small amount of hot water to reach the desired consistency.
