How To Prepare Plant-Based Rice Noodle Salad with Vegan Meat Slices

1. Prepare Your Mise en Place 

Cook the noodles of your choice according to the package instructions. Wash and chop the vegetables, and prepare the fresh herbs. 

2. Make the Dressing

In a jar, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and maple syrup. Shake the jar to emulsify the dressing. 

3. Cook the Vegan Pork

Defrost Meaty Meat overnight in the fridge. If short on time, place it in a bowl of luke-warm water for 15-20 minutes. Remove from packaging, slice each piece into thin strips, and season with salt, and pepper. Pan-fry in a non-stick pan until nicely browned and crispy. 

4. Assemble Your Crunchy Vegan Noodle Bowl 

Divide noodles between two bowls, and add snap peas and cucumbers. Nestle in the Meaty Meat Pork-ish slices and sprinkle with coriander and mint. Pour over the dressing and dig in!
