This is an easy go to in my house. If I’m low on groceries and I have pasta, I know I can always make peanut sauce. It’s super filling in pasta and you can throw in whatever veggies you have handy. Use any leftover sauce for spring rolls, in Israel couscous, a different kind of pasta…whatever!

If I’m low on groceries and I have pasta, I know I can always make peanut sauce. It’s super filling in pasta and you can throw in whatever veggies you have handy.

Ingredients 

  • 6 ounces of Spaghetti
  • A few handfuls of chopped kale
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 Tablespoon of fresh grated ginger
  • 1 Tablespoon of coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup of crunchy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup of veggie broth
  • 2 Tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 1/2 Tablespoon of agave
  • 1/2 teaspoon of rice vinegar
  • Chili flakes (optional)

Instructions 

  • Cook spaghetti for however many servings you need.
  • While the pasta cooks, add coconut oil to a pan in low/med heat. Add garlic and saute a few seconds then all all other ingredients (not pasta and kale). Whisk together and cook abut 1 minute, making sure to keep whisking. If it gets too thick, add a little more broth.
  • Drain pasta and add a touch of broth to the empty pot and add a few handfuls of kale. Cook over medium heat until slightly wilted. Add pasta to the kale and sauce to your liking.

Notes

  • Gluten-free ramen noodles would be the perfect touch instead of spaghetti!
  • Allergic to peanuts? Try almond butter.
