I love this dish. I have been making these Thai peanut noodles for a while. I love making my own takeout dishes, and this one is full of fresh vegetables and delicious peanuts. It has a little spice from the Thai sweet chili sauce, but just a touch. My son had no problem gobbling down two helpings of these noodles, and he is very sensitive to spicy foods. If you want to play it safe, leave out the sweet chili sauce all together and add some honey in its place. I also used linguine, because it was what I had on hand, but you could also use the flat rice noodles.
