Why I Love This Recipe

I’ve taken the classic satay noodle concept and turned it into a vegan protein dream. Here’s what makes it extra special:

• PB powder, nooch & silken tofu in the sauce – no heavy peanut butter, just creamy, protein-rich goodness.

• Pointed peppers & edamame – a colorful crunch and extra plant protein.

• Crispy tofu – for that irresistible texture contrast.

• High-protein noodles – swapping regular noodles for a protein boost.

• Meal prep friendly – makes multiple servings to keep your week simple and nutritious.

  
  

Ingredients (Serves 2*)

• 250g high-protein noodles

• 300g silken tofu

• 4 tbsp peanut butter powder

• 1 tsp sesame oil

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1 tsp ginger powder

Method

1. Cook the noodles according to package instructions.

2. To make the sauce blend silken tofu, peanut butter powder, soy sauce, sriracha, sesame oil, garlic powder, ginger powder, nutritional yeast and a splash of water until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

3. Prepare the tofu by coating in cornflour and sesame oil and baking in the oven/airfryer. (I use my airfryer for quickness) Note: my crispy tofu recipe is linked below.

4. Quickly stir-fry pointed peppers and edamame until tender-crisp.

5. Toss the noodles with the satay sauce, add veggies and crispy tofu, and finish with optional sesame seeds, chilli, spring onions, or lime juice.

6. Serve with a side of steamed tender stem broccoli for a complete, protein-packed meal.
