 |  |   | | Vegan Spicy Noodle Bowl | | Is there anything better than a spicy noodle bowl? We sure don't think so. That's why we're bringing you this recipe from blogger sensation Emily Van Euw's new cookbook, The Rawsome Vegan Cookbook. Inspired by the rich flavors of pad Thai, this version uses spiralized vegetables for noodles, giving it the fresh taste we crave, especially as the weather warms up. Maple syrup, ginger, tahini, and tamari combine to create a sweet and savory sauce that brings out the best flavors from the vegetables.
