Recipe for Peanut Butter Udon Noodles
Udon noodles are great because they’re pretty much ready to go by simply boiling them in hot water or putting them in a microwave (extremely dorm-friendly, don’t you think?). There’s no “cooking” involved and are ready in about 2 minutes!
What I love most is that you can add whatever you want like a peanut butter sauce and veggies to go along with these chewy, thick, and delicious noodles.
We all have those days when we really couldn’t be bothered to make a meal and we just want something super easy and quick.
This Peanut Butter Udon Noodles recipe is a ridiculously easy and delicious meal that you can whip up in less than 5 minutes – without any cooking (which is also perfect for anyone living in a dorm or any day when you don’t feel like cooking over the stove)!
