I LOVE stir frys. My hubby? Not so much. I’m definetely more of a veggie than meat kind of person, and I’m happy to say over the 9 years since we’ve been married I have gotten him to enjoy all kinds of vegetables he never would have touched before. And he loves dishes like this now. I don’t think he even realizes how much he likes veggies these days! : )
We like this fairly tame, but if you and yours like things with more kick, feel free to add some crushed red pepper flakes to add some more punch to it. And no worries if you don’t have any rice noodles, you could use regular fettuccine noodles, or plain cooked white or brown rice as well.
