Almond & Lime Noodles.

Sometimes inspiration hits at the most unexpected moment. Tonight it came while standing in the grocery store. I was looking for agave nectar when I remembered I was out of almond butter. Next thing I knew, this recipe was hatched.

Almond & Lime Noodles

• 1/2 package of whole wheat angel hair pasta
• 3 T almond butter
• 1/4 c orange juice (plus 1 T if needed)
• juice of 1 lime (cut lime in 1/2, then cut one half into wedges)
• 2 green onions, chopped

Cook the noodles according to the package. Drain and set aside.  Melt almond butter in warm pan with orange juice and the juice of 1/2 the lime.  Turn on low burner if needed.  Pour this concoction over the noodles and toss.  If the noodles get sticky, add a little more orange juice.  Toss in the green onions. Serve with the remaining lime half cut into wedges; squeeze the juice onto the noodles and enjoy!
