Serves 4
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 lime (juiced)
- 1 garlic clove (minced)
- 1 tsp. grated ginger
- 4 tbsp. powdered peanut butter
- 2 tbsp. water
- 1 tbsp. sugar-free syrup (maple)
- 200 g wholewheat noodle (cooked)
- ½ red cabbage (shredded)
- 2 carrots (cut into strips)
- To garnish: chopped spring onions & peanuts
Instructions
First make the dressing by adding the soy sauce, lime juice, crushed garlic, grated ginger, powdered peanut butter, water, and sugar-free syrup to a small bowl, stirring well to combine. Divide up into 4 small dressing containers and set aside.
Next, add the cooked & drained noodles to a large bowl along with the shredded red cabbage and finely chopped carrots. Mix to evenly combine all 3 ingredients – you may want to use tongs to help you do this rather than a spoon.
Divide the noodle mix between 4 containers, along with a pot of dressing in each. Garnish with chopped spring onions and peanuts for a finishing touch and then you’re good to go. Keep in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
