SHRIMP AND PEANUT BUTTER NOODLES
A staple for me in college, this is a sweet, salty, nutty dish that can be cooked up in less than 15 minutes. Measurements for the sauce can be adjusted for your taste, but with these ingredients, you can't go wrong! I use pre-washed, pre-cut broccoli florets to cut down on prep time as well.

PEANUT SAUCE OVER SHRIMP SKEWERS AND RICE NOODLES
Inspired by the flavors of Southeast Asia, GZ makes his take on Vietnamese bun with rice vermicelli, grilled soy-lime shrimp and julienned carrots and daikon. In place of the usual tangy fish sauce dressing, he tops the noodle bowl with a richer peanut sauce. Store-bought peanut butter is a shortcut for the traditional whole roasted peanuts and palm sugar in the satay-style sauce. To add a fragrant citrus note, he adds a dab of lemongrass paste from the tube. This versatile sauce pairs well with chicken and pork, as well as shrimp, and is delicious mixed into the noodles.

Top with the carrots, cilantro, cucumbers, daikon and scallions. Add the shrimp skewers to the bowl. Serve warm with a lime wedge and extra peanut sauce on the side.
