Good QUICK lunch. I whipped this up in 10 minutes with leftover rice noodles! I halved the recipe, and used tofu for the gluten as it's what I had (also great!). I thought the heat was perfect, but I would up the other spices next time, and it definitely needed more then a pinch of salt. I will be giving this a another go around though!

WOW! Easily the best Pad Thai I've ever made and going straight into my ~ENCORE~ cookbook reserved for the best of the best. I did make some changes, but believe the essence of the recipe solidly remains. I didn't use gluten or red pepper flakes, used peanut instead of coconut oil, and roasted my red peppers. My husband and I both loved it, but he didn't have seconds... he had FOURTHS! Thank you bunches, Vegan Dave, for this great go-to version of lovely dish. Encore! *Made for PAC Fall 2008*

I made this for my entire family (some of whom are non-veg) and we all loved it! I left out the gluten (didn't have any handy) and crunched up the peanuts first. I also used peanut oil instead of coconut oil, since I had that on hand. An 8oz package of pad thai rice noodles was plenty for four servings. Excellent recipe! We'll make it again!
