Healthy pad thai is light yet still substantial, and bursting with flavor. Packed with veggies and ready in15 minutes, it's perfect for a busy weeknight when you want a nutritious meal but don't have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen.
In a small bowl, whisk together the fish sauce, ginger, lime juice, sesame oil, salt, pepper, honey and vinegar, and red pepper flakes (if using), and set aside.
Put remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; when oil shimmers, add garlic and cook for about a minute. Add eggs to pan; once they begin to set, scramble them until just done.
Add drained noodles to pan along with sauce. Toss everything together to coat with sauce and combine well. When noodles are warmed through, serve immediately. Garnish with peanuts and cilantro.
* Cook noodles al dente. To be safe, cook your noodles 1 minute less than the suggested cooking time on package. We don't want overcooked noodles!
* Rinse noodles under cold water. This stops the cooking and prevents the noodles from sticking together.
