Very good, a little on the heavy side and there was a bit too much sauce for me personally. Easy and fast!

Declicious, quick and easy to make with most ingredients on hand. Because I was in a hurry when I made this, I used thin Chinese egg noodles instead of linguine. I had hot pepper sesame oil on hand and used that instead of toasted sesame oil. I used two bunches of scallions and one cucumber quartered and sliced.

The cool, crunchy cucumber keeps this a refrshing (yet filling) salad. The sesame seeds bring out the sesame flavor in the sauce, which is enough to coat the noodles without a lot of glop. I used cilantro instead of scallions. I've enjoyed other versions of sesame-peanut noodles with a heavier, sweeter sauce, and sweet vegetables like carrots or red bell peppers, and those are satisfying, too, but this is a lovely, sophisticated summer dish.

This was great! I had to use reduced fat peanut butter and think that regular would be better - the sauce wasn't very thick, but it still coated the noodles and tasted awesome. ..I doubled the sauce and sauteed some strips of chicken to go with it.. put a mound of noodles on the plate, laid chicken slices over the top, sprinkled with green onions, sprinkled cucumbers on the plate around the noodles, drizzled w/some of the extra sauce, and finally sprinkled on the sesame seeds. It was beautiful! My DH said, "This tastes so good, and I don't even like this kind of thing." Thank you!
