The spaghetti, tofu, and snow peas are cooked quickly in one pot, the peanut sauce ingredients take seconds to combine in a small bowl, then everything is tossed together. It comes together so quickly and cleanup is so easy that it'll be part of your weeknight dinner rotation soon enough. If you prefer, substitute 3/4 pound of cooked medium shrimp for the tofu and add some chopped fresh mint, cilantro, or basil, or whatever else that's fresh in your herb garden to top it all off. You can serve this dish hot or at room temperature, and if you have leftovers, refrigerate for up to two days. Just let it come to room temperature or gently reheat before serving.
