Pork Glass Noodles

I had glass noodles for the first time about 15 years ago when eating japchae at a local Korean restaurant. I loved that dish and the glass noodles. Since my first experience, I have discovered I have gluten sensitivity, and glass noodles have been something I enjoy in various ways. This dish incorporates them along with other Asian flavors to make a quick meal that is completed in under 30 minutes.

The sunbutter(sunflower seed butter) in this recipe can be swapped out for peanut butter or cashew butter if you prefer those flavors or can't find any sunbutter. Almond butter would also work; just make sure you use a creamy, smooth version.

Instructions
  1. Cook the sweet potato glass noodles according to the package.

  7. Top with green onions and serve.
