Cold Sesame Noodles

So good. So easy. Definitely one of those meals you can throw together very quickly and without using the stove/oven if you don't want.

1 bunch, really as many as you'd like, thin rice noodles
2 carrots, sliced in half moons
2 stalks celery, sliced in half moons
1/2 a cucumber, diced
3 T rice vinegar
2 T soy sauce
1/4 tsp hot chili garlic sauce
5-6 drops sesame oil
2 T water

Cook rice noodles according to package (usually just soaking in hot water for about 10 minutes). Combine noodles, carrots, celery, and cucumber in a large bowl. In a small bowl combine vinegar, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, sesame oil, and water. Stir everything together well. Let rest 5 - 10 minutes to let flavors soak in.

*diced extra firm tofu can be added cooked or uncooked for extra protein
*Sesame seeds can be added to the top for a garnish.
