Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled, ends removed, + spiralized
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable or avocado oil
  • 2 teaspoons ginger peeled + grated
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/2 - 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (depending on preferred spice level)
  • 8 ounces green beans trimmed and cut into 2" pieces
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3 green onions sliced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro chopped

For Serving:

  • peanuts roasted + salted, chopped

Instructions

  • Use a veggie peeler to remove the sweet potato skin, and cut to remove the pointy ends of each potato. Spiralize using a spiralizer into noodles, and cut the noodles using kitchen scissors to make smaller strands.
  • In a large pan over medium heat, add the vegetable/avocado oil. Once shimmering, add the garlic and ginger, and saute until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the sweet potato noodles, green beans, water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes. Toss to coat the noodles in sauce, and bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer for 8-10 minutes, until the veggies have softened to your liking.
  • Remove from heat and add the peanut butter, toss until it blends into the sauce. Stir in the green onions and cilantro.
  • Top noodles with additional green onions, cilantro, and peanuts. Enjoy!
