This classic Thai dish has a sweet ginger sauce that is accented by lime juice and peanuts. It's delicious on its own, but feel free to add chicken or tofu for a more filling meal.

  • This is a wonderful dish but the recipe above does not include chicken and shrimp which is traditionally in Pad Thai. It would have been good for this submission to have that as an option.
