Healthy 30 Minute Meals

This recipe was tested with both white and brown rice noodles. They work equally well and require the same amount of time to prepare. Ultimately, the choice comes down to your personal preference.

However, the brown variety offers more fiber and protein per serving. This may vary from one brand to another, however, so be sure to check the brand you are using if this is important to you.

Note: Although they aren’t used here, bean sprouts are commonly found in many Pad Thai recipes.

This quick and easy meal is both beautiful and delicious thanks to the addition of vibrantly hued rainbow carrots. Don’t despair if you can’t find them locally, however. Regular orange carrots will provide a nice pop of color, as well.

Tip: For best results, choose large, straight carrots for this application instead of smaller and/or twisted specimens. This will make it much easier to peel and slice them into nice ribbons with a vegetable peeler.
