peanuts
1/3 cup vinegar
quartered lime

Cook, rinse and refrigerate the noodles ahead of time!.
In a bowl mix the peanut butter, soy sauce, and sugar!.

them for about 5 minutes!. Then add the mixture in the bowl and the vinegar!. Cook this for a couple more minutes!. Lastly, add the eggs and peanuts, and heat until hot!. Serve with the lime wedges on the side!.
