Ingredients

3 servings

3 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/4 cup agave or brown sugar
1/4 cup fish sauce
1/3 cup lime juice
1/3 cup vegetable oil
7 -8 ounces rice noodles
1/4 cup each of basil, mint, and cilantro (plz use all three – they’re so good together!)
1 serrano pepper
1/2 cup chopped peanuts
2 avocados
2 carrots
1 red bell pepper
1 cucumber
1 lb . of shrimp, tofu, or chicken (optional)

Steps

Pulse the sauce ingredients together in a blender or food processor.
Cook your rice noodles by soaking them in cold water for about 30 minutes. When they’re softened, transfer to a pot of boiling water for just a minute or two before quickly draining again. *This is my preferred method because it prevents them from getting overly sticky.*
Mince the herbs, slice the serrano pepper, and peel or julienne cut the vegetables.
Cook your shrimp, tofu, or chicken if you’re adding that in.
Toss the noodles (hot or cold! your choice, friend) with the sweet garlic lime sauce and all the other ingredients.
