Shrimp Pad Thai

This bowl of rainbow veg is yummy, filling and super satisfying. You can either keep the shrimp or remove it for a vegetarian option. In all honesty, I think you can add any veg in to a pad Thai as long as they are nice and crunchy. I was going to add Edamame to mine, might do that next time. I feel this would be so great to take to work too, if you like eating it cold. In all honesty, I'd serve it as soon as it's ready. Hot, salty, tangy and sweet.
