I don’t live in a dorm anymore (cuz…. I’m 27) but I make this recipe on the regular when I am too busy or lazy too cook. It’s quick and easy but also delicious and healthy!! This fresh and vibrant meal may be heavy on the veggies, but it does not eat like a salad. These crispy veggies are topped with a creamy and indulgent sauce to give it rich and filling mouth feel. It is inspired by the most basic Pad Thai dish with an Edgy Veg twist, keeping it familiar but with a new life.

I love spiralized vegetables as noodles. It is such an easy way to lighten up your meals, get rid of empty carbs, or simply makes your vegetables more interesting! You can add protein to this dish by adding some sautéd tofu, tempeh or even roasted chickpeas- assuming you aren’t in a dorm. If you want more dorm friendly recipes check out this playlist! I recently did a collab with my friend Nikky to bring you the easiest most delicious recipes. Like this super easy Avocado Peanut Butter Chocolate Pudding recipe.
