Comfort food comes in so many varieties, shapes and sizes. I’m Sicilian and Irish and growing up there was always some kind of pasta on our dinner table at least twice a week, especially on Sundays. I love Asian food and when you put that in the mix with pasta, wow, I’m in comfort heaven. My recipe for this Asian Peanut Noodle Salad with Peanut Lime Sauce is so very good, you can serve at your table in a bowl or a fun way to be able to offer is at an appetizer or “small bites” parties is to serve it in little Chinese take-out boxes, I have chopsticks available for the guests to dig into their Asian noodles in an authentic way. The Peanut Lime Sauce recipe is on a different posting since it can be used for so many different foods, it truly is very versatile. I hope you enjoy this noodle salad as much as I do and many of the party guests that I have served this to.
