A delectable assortment of vegetables interspersed in the finest rice noodles. The noodles are coated with a heaping spoon of 100% peanuts peanut butter, a giant glug of soy sauce and a sprinkling of my favorite hot paste.

    Hi there. Stumbled across this from “All.”

    How come you didn’t use any oil to cook your veggies?

      A recipe like this wouldn’t normally use oil (maybe a chili oil but not to cook it), but I included that term because I think sometimes people think whole food plant based no oil food is a pile of avocados and fancy lettuce.

      Oil is empty calories. It’s extracted from its source but you don’t get any of the good stuff in the foods. I’m not a super strict noiler but I don’t keep/use cooking oils. I’ll buy potato chips on occasion tho.
