Microwavable Peanut Noodle Bowls

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Spicy Peanutty Noodle Bowl with Chicken is Microwave-Ready

— December 23, 2023 — Lifestyle
Trader Joe's is here to help you upgrade your microwave dinners with its new Spicy Peanutty Noodle Bowl with Chicken.

A delicious option for those who need to eat and run, the new Spicy Peanutty Noodle Bowl with Chicken offers a filling meal that's full of flavor. The dish is inspired by dandan noodles, which is a classic Szechuan dish featuring a bed of chewy wheat noodles. Trader Joe's version tops the noodles with tender, minced chicken, bok choy, onions, and carrots. The dish is also served with a spicy, umami-rich peanut sauce, which brings together all the ingredients with rich ginger, tamari, and peanut flavors.

Best of all, the dish is fully cooked, so all you need to do is pop the dish in the microwave for a few minutes and it's ready to eat.
