Pad Thai is so much easier to make than I thought! The leftovers somehow tasted even better. I will definitely be making this recipe again and again. I used tofu for this version, but you can add or substitute chicken or shrimp. Omit eggs to make the recipe below vegan.

Thai food is definitely one of my all time favorite cuisines! I never shy away from a good noodle recipe either. If you give it a try, be sure to let me know your thoughts! Next time I will be adding tamarind paste for an even more authentic taste.
