This Spicy Shrimp Peanut Noodle Bowls recipe is the perfect meal prep or dinner recipe with peanut noodle stir fry, kimchi and greens.

I’m on a mission to eat more vegetables! I’ve been listening to so many podcasts on gut healing and healthy living, and there seems to be one thing all nutritionists agree on: eat more vegetables!

Now, I’m on a mission to fill my plate at least half with vegetables. It’s been a really fun challenge to come up with creative ways I can include more vegetables into every meal.

These Spicy Shrimp Peanut Noodle Bowls are one of my favorite veggie-packed meal prep recipes or dinner recipe that your whole family will love!

I made this recipe for my boyfriend to take to work, and he couldn’t stop talking about how good it was! Score!

With brown rice noodles, stir fried vegetables, shrimp, and a spicy peanut sauce, this spicy shrimp peanut noodle stir fry is one of my all-time favorite recipes to make.

It comes together super quickly and tastes amazing! I’ve been making a version of peanut sauce stir fry since college because of how darn good it is every time.

If you don’t have brown rice noodles, spaghetti noodles or other stir fry noodles will do.

Feel free to throw in any vegetables you happen to have in your refrigerator for this stir fry recipe! I even threw in some asparagus I had on hand.

If you or your family aren’t into the spice, just omit the sriracha. Or, if you love it spicy, take it up a notch with some chili garlic sauce.

To make sure you get that extra dose of vegetables, I like serving these noodles on a big bed of greens. I used arugula and microgreens from Whole Foods.

I also love serving kimchi on the side … it’s great for gut health!

Next time you need a quick and easy meal prep or dinner recipe, give these Spicy Shrimp Peanut Noodle Bowls a try.

I hope you and your family love them as much as we did!
