Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the ramen noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente, typically 3-5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.

While the noodles cook, prepare the peanut sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together the creamy peanut butter, low-sodium soy sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, light brown sugar, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, and water (or vegetable broth) until smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust sriracha or sugar as desired.

If adding vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced red bell pepper and julienned carrots. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until slightly tender-crisp. Add the white parts of the sliced scallions and cook for another 1 minute.

Add the drained noodles to the skillet with the vegetables (or directly to the sauce bowl if not using vegetables). Pour the peanut sauce over the noodles and toss thoroughly until all noodles are evenly coated. If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon or two of the noodle cooking water or regular water to reach desired consistency.

Divide the spicy sriracha peanut noodles among serving bowls. Garnish generously with chopped roasted peanuts, sesame seeds, fresh cilantro, and the green parts of the scallions. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
