Vegetarian Rainbow Pad Thai Stir Fry
Pad Thai is one of my all-time favorite Thai foods. Although I have made a version of my own, this one is more of a stir fry over Pad Thai-style rice noodles. I served mine with a generous portion of Sriracha, which I have to say, I definitely recommend. The beauty of this dish is that you can throw in any leftover veggies you have in your fridge and serve it over noodles. You can also add in some chicken or shrimp for added protein.
Ingredients (serves 2)
- 4 ounces uncooked, Pad Thai rice noodles
