Vegan Sticky Noodles with Hoisin Sauce

This is really tasty and better than a chinese take away! Full of veggies, compels carbs from the noodles and protein from the edamame beans & peanut butter. I added some firm Tofu to mine (as you can see in the picture) Just add it in with the stir fry and cook until heated right through.
