Thai Noodles

This is a great fast dish to make with leftover chicken, or steak on a weeknight.  Or leave the meat out.  It's spicy and fills that comfort food zone.

1 Pound Fettuccini, Spaghetti or Linguine, cooked to the instructions on the package

1 jar Thai Curry Paste

1/4 cup Minced Mint Leaves
1/4 cup Minced Cilantro
1/4 cup shiffinad basil leaves (roll the basil leaves like a cigar and cut across for ribbons)

1 cup chopped peanuts
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Red pepper flakes (as desired)

Cook the pasta and drain.  Return to the hot pot, and remove from heat.  Add the remaining ingredients and toss.  Serve immediately, or at room service.  Makes a great pot luck dish.  

I have a whole bowl to take to work tomorrow for my girls!
