  3. Lower the heat slightly and stir in the peanut butter, tomato paste, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Mix for about 2 minutes until the sauce is smooth.
  4. Gently add the drained rice noodles and green peas to the skillet. Toss everything together for about 2–3 minutes until the noodles are coated.
  5. Transfer Easy Vegan Peanut Noodles to serving bowls, garnishing with chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro if desired.
