  4. Add the chopped scallions and cook for 2 minutes. Next add the other veggies and cook till they are fork tender, but not mushy.
  5. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons peanut powder and mix well. Stir in the soy sauce and mix until incorporated.
  6. Add the drained noodles and toss them until they are well coated with the veggies. Add the reserved cooking water as needed to loosen the sauce. Serve warm and Enjoy with chili garlic sauce!!
