Pad Thai with Elk Roast

Posted by Leland Schmoker · September 20, 2023

This recipe makes a big batch, but it’s so good, you won’t get tired of eating it. You can cook once and have multiple meals throughout the week or freeze it for later. This Pad Thai freezes and reheats surprisingly well in vacuum-sealed bags. You can freeze it in individual servings to have on hand for a quick lunch or as a boil-in-bag meal for hunting camp. You can eat it as is or top it with chili crisp for extra spice, a squeeze of lime juice, peanuts, and cilantro leaves. Enjoy!
