you can solve this problem by having pad thai with extra green onion and peppers? recipes that say to use half a pep are not cops, they can't stop you from throwing the whole thing in there if waste is a concern. plus, health.

Extra peppers and carrots you can just put into your mouth and snack on. With ranch dressing or hummus if you want to be fancy but it’s not necessary.

I happen to like balanced flavors so if I add more peppers I need to add more of everything else too. More importantly, the specific produce isn't the point. This all started with Strangleskid saying just not to make "complicated dishes like Pad Thai" as a solution to cooking at home getting harder.

if you have eggs, onions, peppers, scallions, garlic left over from pad Thai you make scrambled eggs or an omelette with the same ingredients later that week. Add some cheese too if you want. The real issue is buying specialized sauces and then not cooking that cuisine enough times to use them up.
