Vegan Pad Thai with cashew butter & broccoli

This post is also available in german/deutsch.Today we decided for  a vegan Pad Thai! And we have to say, the decision was excellent. So we killed two birds with one stone. The opened noodles is now gone, I could finally use my homemade cashew butter (I’m actually rather the peanut butter lovers) and also the small firm broccoli had his big show. All in all, we are all very satisfied.

The dish is ready in about 30 minutes, depending on how fast and versed you are in the kitchen. We also save time by preparing or cooking several things at the same time. A super delicious lunch is guaranteed.The dish is versatile and we can also use peanut butter instead of cashew butter. For this, replace the ingredients 1 to 1. Although I (Kathrin) always prefer peanuts, I have to say that the cashew butter fits great in the sauce. Always use a nut butter that consists of 100% nuts. Without sugar or (palm) oil additive. I always make a bigger amount myself. Basic recipe: nut butter.Vegan Pad Thai and side dishes
