I first discovered Pad Thai when my husband took me out for dinner at an authentic Thai restaurant. I was immediately hooked on the flavors – the sweet and sour sauce, the nutty crunch of peanuts, and the chewy rice noodles. After that meal, I was determined to recreate this delicious dish at home. After some trial and error, I finally perfected my own version of Pad Thai. It’s quick and easy to make, but still full of flavor. And since we all love it so much, I make it at least once a week in our house!

I was first introduced to Pho when my family immigrated from Vietnam to Canada when I was 8 years old. My mom would make us this delicious soup every Sunday night after church as a special treat for us kids. We would eagerly await her arrival home from church so we could gather around the dinner table to enjoy her famous Pho recipe! Even though we may not be able to gather around our dinner table as often as we used to due to our hectic schedules these days, I still enjoy making this easy Pho recipe as a way to reconnect with my roots while creating lasting memories around our dinner table that my kids will cherish for years to come.
