I have to say, this is now one of those dishes I make over and over and over again, and every time I make it it gets better as I fine-tune it to my favorite flavors. You can eat it raw vegan style and make it in about 15 minutes like a salad, or you can blanch the noodles and sauté in a pan for a hot dish. Either way, you are getting lots of nutrition without that heavy feeling you get from a traditional Pad Thai. You. Will. Love. This.
