Swirl together crunchy, colorful vegetables and a boldly-flavored peanut sauce for a super-satisfying meal that's perfect for any time of year. As well as powdered peanut butter, the delicious sauce features fresh lime juice, agave nectar, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, grated ginger, and chili sauce that's tossed with chopped up scallions, shredded cabbage, and spiralized carrots, parsnips, and zucchini. You can use a vegetable peeler or box grater if you don't own a spiralizer, but we highly recommend investing in one to make this perfect pasta substitute. If you have some on hand, feel free to add some grilled tofu for extra protein.
