Auntie Bucksnort's Spicy Peanut Noodles

In her own words:

Very simple & quick - it's my go-to-must-have-carbs-right-this-instant dish.

Wide rice noodles (boil 12 minutes, then rinse really well with hot water). 

In a big microwave proof bowl: a bunch of Mae Ploy sauce (cheapest at the cheapy groovy food supply store*) w/ a great big glop of smooth cheapy peanut butter. (Might be even better w/ chunky p.b.) Heat that for 3 minutes, whisk in rice wine vinegar and a whole bunch of lime juice

Toss in noodles. I like to add a bunch of sliced hearts of palm from the cheapy groovy food supply store if I have them. And I like eating it hot or cold. Might be good as a base for pad thai. Cheapest to order the noodles if you can bear dealing with the great big footprint of all that prime packaging.

My note:

*The cheapy groovy food supply store: We never can remember the name of this place since it seems to change hands before we can get used to what it's called. Right now it is Shamrock Foods and is located at 2489 N Main St, Las Cruces, NM 88001.

I always find it by searching online for "Las Cruces restaurant supply" since it has restaurant-style bowls, utensils, and pans in addition to lots of interesting foods.
