Pad Thai with Kelp Noodles

Tonight I made a quick dinner that took about fifteen minutes but was very satisfying. I made a simple dressing to put over kelp noodles, savoy cabbage and some red peppers. It was easy, bright, and fun to eat with chopsticks. Eating well couldn't be simpler.



Pad Thai Sauce:

1/4 c. raw organic almond butter
1/4 c. coconut oil liquified
2 T. Bragg's Liquid Aminos
juice of one lime
2 T.  sesame seeds
1 red hot chili
1/4 to 1/2  c. filtered water

Blend all ingredients in a blender. Set aside.

Pad Thai:
1 12 oz. package of kelp noodles, rinsed
1 c. thinly sliced savoy cabbage
1/2 c. basil leaves ( keep some out for garnish)
1/2 red bell pepper chopped plus a few tablespoons for garnish

Put all ingredients into a large bowl. Pour dressing over noodles, cabbage, basil and pepper. Toss mixture in dressing. Garnish with basil leaves and red pepper. Serves two.

Note: I have to buy kelp noodles online because I haven't found them readily available. Try vitacost.com for some good deals.
