Dice garlic and 4 chives (green onions). You want to save 2 of the chives for toppings later.
Refer to package instructions for rice noodles and put the water in a medium saucepan to boil.
Heat a large saucepan on medium heat and add sesame oil.
Add garlic and chives to the saucepan and cook until garlic is fragrant (about 2-3 minutes).
While garlic and chives are cooking, cut the carrots and brocolinni bunches.
Add carrots and broccolini, salt, pepper, coconut aminos, and hot pepper sesame oi to the saucepan.
Cook mixture until softened (about 10-15 minutes on medium heat).
The water for the rice noodles should be boiling by now. While vegetable mixture is cooking, follow package instructions to cook the rice noodles (most only take about 8 minutes to cook in boiling water so they usually finish up right on time).
Once the noodles are cooked, strain water and add rice noodles to the vegetable mixture.
Mix noodles into vegetables thoroughly and taste test a small bite.
Add more or less hot pepper sesame oil depending on desired spiceness.
Add more coconut aminos for a sweeter mixture and more salt for a more savory mixture.
I keep taste testing and adding ingredients until it tastes good to me.
Use tongs or a pronged spoon to serve veggie and noodles into bowls.
Dice the last 2 chives and cashews. Sprinkle chives, cashews and sesame seeds over bowls to garnish.
Add any other desired toppings and enjoy!
