I added a red chili pepper just for this picture, however they are a bit spicy do to the sriracha chili in the sauce.

So follow along for this tasty recipe that can be on the table in under 15 minutes.

You can pretty much use any type of noodles you want for this recipe, I did choose gluten free buckwheat noodles for mine.

However we aware not all buckwheat noodles are gluten free so please read the labels.

If you’re looking for another gluten free option, try vermicelli rice noodles instead. Once the noodles have been cooked you will simply remove and drain them.

Then in a non stick frying pan add the peanut butter, sesame oil, honey, soya sauce, sriracha sauce and water and that is all that is needed to make the creamy sauce.

Today you can find many different types of ways to prepare these noodles. Some recipes call for sugar, I feel that the peanut butter has enough in it even if your using an all natural kind. 

However if you want it to be a bit sweeter go ahead and add 1 tsp of sugar or maple syrup. I hope you give it a try and let me know what you and your family think.
