Cook Noodles

Cook pasta according to directions on package. ( See notes for rice noodles) Drain and chill under cold running water.

Blend the Peanut Sauce:

while noodles are cookig, blend the peanut sauce ingredients together using a blender until smooth.

Toss:

Place shredded veggies, bell pepper, scallions, cilantro and jalapeño into a serving bowl. Toss. Add the cold noodles to the serving bowl and toss again. Pour some peanut sauce over top and toss well to combine- no need to use all, just use enough to coat well. ( Save the extra sauce for any leftover salad-as it can soak up the sauce overnight.)

Taste

Adjust the salt (to your liking), add chili flakes if you want, or more lime, and serve, garnishing with roasted peanuts and cilantro and a lime wedge.
