    I made this tonight with ground pork. It was delicious even though my fresh basil died and i had to use dried. Also, I misplaced my serrano peppers, LOL, so I didn’t use them. Will make again!!!

    I made this tonight and added some pineapple chicken meatballs we had in the fridge. I love all the fresh herbs and veggies! My new favorite. I can’t wait to have it again!

    We had this for dinner tonight. I added tofu and it was delicious!!! We had to use almond butter and chopped cashews because my husband is allergic to peanuts.It would be great with shrimp too. Thank You for another great recipe.

  4. We all liked this and my kids especially. My 9 year old asked me to make it again while eating it. 😀
    We did it with tofu and for the kids i left out the sweet chili sauce drizzle but did add it to the noodles.

  5. So good! A great mix of heat and peanut flavors. The herbs made the dish so flavorful. Loved the cool ingredients such as mango and cucumber also. Great dish, now that I know how to make it 🙂
