25-Minute Spicy Ramen

This ramen has ground pork, carrots, cabbage, sweet peppers, and a kick of heat!

My family has been eating different variations of ramen lately and this one was super fun because it has ground meat and seems like it's way easier to throw together than the others (it's really not but it seems that way with ground meat). I think this is one of the first ramen recipes I've made with any kind of nuts and I really love savory dishes with peanuts - SO MUCH. So all in all, this has a really great balance of flavors and textures. And it's quick to make!

Hoisin Stir Fry Bowls

This stir fry bowl has loads of flavor and a spicy peanut sauce to finish it off!

Stir frys are the perfect quick meal. They have so much flavor and you can put so many veggies in them. My oldest in particular probably likes stir frys more than other Asian style cuisine simply because the veggies maintain their crunch and he doesn't like when veggies get soft and mushy. I adore this particular stir fry for it's peanut butter sauce and chopped peanuts topping. I don't know why but I love all of these style recipes with peanut sauces and crunchy peanuts or cashews on them. There is so much savory goodness with those additions!
