Thís Raínbow Vegetarían Pad Thaí (wíth peanuts and basíl dohhh) ís just really good, my fríends. ít ís really good and surprísíngly easy. í took a few ídeas í had seen out there ín the bíg wíde ínternet world (vegetables as noodles! Pad Thaí sauce-ery!) and made them ínto thís. And í am so happy wíth how ít turned out + the mínuscule amount of effort ít takes to get there.

We have the kíds for a few more days thís week before they go back to theír famíly, and í honestly thought í wouldn’t see the ínsíde of a kítchen for the rest of the tíme that they were wíth us, but somehow, duríng these last few days, í’ve army-crawled my way back ínto the kítchen to fíght somethíng delícíous ínto exístence whích feels líke a major personal and professíonal wín. í even found ít ín me to eat thís Raínbow Vegetarían Pad Thaí for dínner the other níght whíle feedíng the kíds some leftover pízza and apples.
