Over the last few years, I’ve been steadily eating my way through the many Asian restaurants in my city. One of my new favorite finds has been the Vietnamese Vermicelli Noodle Salad! They are typically made with thin, delicate rice noodles that are cooked to perfection and then combined with a variety of fresh vegetables and herbs like cilantro, mint, and basil. If it’s being served as a main dish, proteins like chicken, beef, or tofu top it all off. The mix of flavors and textures make it an absolutely irresistible meal, and a pretty healthy one to boot!

One of the best parts about this dish is that it’s usually served at room temperature so it’s great for meal prep or a lunch on the go. Rice noodles cook in a matter of minutes making the assembly process quick and easy. Chop your veggies and whisk together the simple soy sauce and vinegar based dressing. Toss it all together and you’re ready to go! There’s plenty of room for customization when it comes to toppings and veggies, so feel free to tailor the recipe to your taste.
