Doing the Prep

1. Prep all vegetables. We opted for peeled strips of carrot and thinly sliced bell peppers from top to bottom and made 1/4″-thick or less slices of red and green cabbage. The result was a plate or bowl of similar shapes that easily swirled onto a fork with the pasta. 
2. Prepare pasta according to package instructions, just until al dente, then drain in a colander, rinse in cold water and set aside.  

Putting it Together

1. While pasta is cooking, add the peanut butter, coconut aminos, Lakanto syrup and golden sweetener, lime juice, chili garlic sauce, garlic powder, vinegar and ginger to a medium bowl and whisk together. Start with 3 tablespoons of peanut butter and add a fourth if you prefer more peanut flavor. Taste for heat and add more chili garlic sauce if you prefer a lot of heat. 
2. While pasta is resting, heat a large, sauté pan (a big pot will also work and prevents a mess while tossing the ingredients together) over medium-low heat. Add the peanut mixture, and whites of the onions. Stir to melt the peanut butter and incorporate all ingredients. 

For Serving Now

1. If you will be serving all at once, add the cabbage and carrots, toss to coat evenly and continue cooking until the vegetables just start to wilt, 2-3 minutes. Toss a few times to avoid burning the sauce. Do not cover the pan, we want to cook off excess liquid.
2. As soon as the vegetables start to wilt, add the pasta to the pan and stir to coat. Continue cooking until the noodles are heated through, then add the bell peppers, remove from heat and toss again. Plate and serve immediately with lime wedges and reserved onion greens, and garnish with chopped peanuts and/or cilantro if desired. 

For Saving Leftovers

1. This recipe serves six and is best served immediately simply because the vegetables continue to give off liquid while refrigerated. If you know you’ll have leftovers, heat the sauce with the onion whites, then pour about half of it into a small glass container that has a lid and set aside. Add the pasta to the remaining sauce and onions in the pan, warm through, and remove from heat. 
2. Add the cabbage and carrots to another large pan with just a spritz of olive or avocado oil and cook over medium heat just until wilted. Add bell peppers, toss, and transfer to a large bowl to prevent them from overcooking.  
3. Plate the dressed pasta, top with wilted vegetables, and drizzle with reserved sauce from the container. Serve with lime wedges and reserved onion greens, and garnish with chopped peanuts and/or cilantro if desired.
