Leftover Pad Thai Meat or No Meat image

This is a delicious, cheap, and fast recipe that is perfect for my allergy riddled family. I love the rich flavors and the adaptability that makes this dish fresh and something that everyone can enjoy. I usually make this with whatever leftover meat and/or veggies we have in the fridge, or if I am in a pinch I just add extra veggies (more carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, whatever you have). Looking for a use for all of those broccoli stalks? Dice em up and saute them with the onions! They add a great flavor and crunch. I did not make this spicy because of the little one, feel free to add some peppers after you saute the onions. This is adapted from The Gluten Free Vegan by Susan O'Brien.

I found this recipe to be a bit too spicy for my taste. However, I was able to adjust the amount of chili paste to suit my preference.

I am very impressed with the recipe! It was easy to follow and the Pad Thai came out delicious. I used chicken and added some extra vegetables, such as bell peppers and snow peas. It was also not too spicy, which is perfect for my taste.
