- NOTES : Cool noodles with spicy peanut sauce is a Szechwan restaurant dish you probably have not considered making at home. By doing so, however, you can keep the fat content down and add in fresh vegetables. Though peanut butter contains heart-healthy monounsaturated fat and other nutrients, eat it in moderation, because it is so calorie-dense. If you're being extra careful about sodium, substitute reduced-sodium soy sauce.
