Raw veggies are tossed together with rice noodles and a tahini dressing in these Asian Tahini Noodle Bowls. A quick vegan dinner or make ahead lunch!

Lately I am all about bowls.

Bowls of salad, bowls of noodles, Buddha bowls…if it will fit in a bowl, I’m eating it. And with all of these bowls in my life, I was inspired to make these super quick, super tasty Asian Tahini Noodle Bowls.

Now, I’m not going to lie, this tahini sauce is pretty freaking tasty. It may be giving my Spicy Peanut Sauce a run for its money. And the funny thing is it’s not even spicy! Shocker, I know. I’m usually all about the spice, but for today’s recipe we’re keeping it tame. Well, tame when it comes to spice, but not when it comes to flavor.

This sauce has all of the good stuff. Ginger, garlic, soy sauce. Combine that will tangy tahini and you have a truly dreamy, creamy sauce. Plus it is super easy to make!

Whether you serve this dish hot or cold (I went the cold route, but hot would be totally good too!), I know you are going to be sharing in my love for all things in bowls.

This also makes a great make ahead lunch! Prep all of the veggies, cook the noodles, and make the sauce. Separate everything into individual containers and you are lunch ready.
