# How-To Steps:
01 - Spiralize zucchinis and carrots. Slice bell pepper thinly, trim and halve snap peas, and thinly slice green onions. Chop cilantro and set all vegetables aside.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, maple syrup, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Start with 2 tablespoons of warm water and add more gradually, 1 tablespoon at a time, until sauce reaches smooth, pourable consistency.
03 - Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a splash of sesame oil if desired for enhanced flavor.
04 - Add bell pepper, carrot, and snap peas to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp but retain slight firmness.
05 - Add spiralized zucchini noodles and toss gently for 2 to 3 minutes until heated through. Avoid overcooking to prevent noodles from becoming soggy.
06 - Pour prepared peanut sauce over all vegetables and toss thoroughly to coat evenly. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until everything is warmed through.
07 - Remove from heat immediately. Transfer to serving plates and garnish with chopped roasted peanuts, green onions, and fresh cilantro. Serve at once.
