Thai Curry (slowcooker)

1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 14oz can light coconut milk
1 tbsp red curry paste
1 tbsp minced ginger
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1/3 cup all natural peanut butter
1 red pepper, julienned
1 orange pepper, julienned
1 small red onion, finely sliced into rings
1 ½ cups water
1 19oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
2-3 cups roughly chopped bok choy
¼ cup chopped fresh basil
1 cup frozen peas
8oz brown rice noodles

In a slow cooker add all ingredients from soy sauce to chickpeas. Cook on low for 5 hours. At the end of the 5 hours, add bok choy, basil, peas and noodles. Make sure you stir the noodles in really well otherwise they will clump. Cook for another hour. Serve with more fresh basil if desired.
You can also cook the noodles in a separate pot just before serving to prevent any clumping.
