In reply to Kathy. I recommend using extra starch to thicken up the sauce; the same thing happened to me the first time I made this dish. This time I used extra coconut flour (instead of cornstarch), putting in a teaspoon at a time and stirring until I achieve the consistency I desired. Happy cooking!

I prepared this recipe for the second time tonight and it was OUTSTANDING!! This recipe is so delicious already and an extra tablespoon or two of fresh squeezed lime juice plus a generous scoop of unsweetened crunchy peanut butter once everything’s mixed together took it to another level for my boyfriend and me. I also let the sauce marry in a mixing bowl for about 15 minutes prior to heating it in the pan and used coconut flour instead of cornmeal and this time it turned out with a perfect creamy, not soupy, pad thai consistency. Success!! Thank you so much for posting these awesome recipes and congratulations on choosing to live your passion!

I made this tonight. The taste was yummy, but it turned out soupy. I expect pad thai to be fairly dry. Is that not possible with zucchini noodles?

This was good but WAY too spicy for our family. And too salty for us. I think next time I will replace half or more of the fish sauce with the soy sauce (we used coconut aminos) and cut the sriracha in half. It was good thought, just need to tweak for out families tastes and dietary needs.

This looks great! Can I make this ahead of time and reheat it for lunch?

This was so delicious! I literally loved everything about it. I didn’t put in shallots and when I cooked I was a little worried that there was too little sauce and too much zoodles ..but it actually turned out just about perfect! Not runny at all..a little dry if anything. Thank you!

Maybe you should change your heading to omit Vegetarian. This recipe anything but that with fish sauce as the first ingredient. Strict vegetarians or not, fish sauce will be a no no.

Made this last night–Absolutely fantastic! I messed up the eggs, though. I thought you were supposed to scramble them in the noodles, which made for a mushy texture. I’m guessing I was supposed to cook them separately and then add them in with the peanuts. Now I know for next time, and there will definitely be a next tine because the flavor was great! Thanks for the recipe!!

Super yummy!! Have made several times:-)
(Not sure why the first recipe called for coconut flour and honey and this corn starch and brown sugar??)

I made this last night and it was very good. One question: your instructions mention garlic, but garlic is not in your list of ingredients. Can you clarify that for me? I ended up adding a healthy shake of garlic powder…either way, now that I have all of the different ingredients, I plan on making it again soon.

This was SO GOOD! I noticed in the instructions it called for garlic, but none was listed in the ingredients, so I just decided to add 2 chopped cloves – perfect. My husb gave it a 5-star (out of 5 stars), so it was a hit all around ~ ruth
