Sesame Noodles

Quick and easy rice noodles in a rich Asian inspired sesame sauce.

The original recipe was from a Susan Branch cookbook that I have had for over 20 years.  I was recently reminded of it when we made it with my parents at Christmastime.  It is now a regular item in our family rotation.  If you love Pad Thai, this will be right up your alley.  And if you like dinner in a hurry,  this will be ready to eat in 10 minutes!
