Quick Noodle Stir-fry

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1 pkg. fresh oriental noodles
  
• 1 pkg. oriental broccoli salad (see note)
  
• 5-10 sliced mushrooms or rehydrated dried mushrooms
  
• tamari or soy sauce
  
• peanut oil
  
• any other veggies you have handy
  

Directions:

Boil noodles, if necessary, per package directions. (Read
instructions on noodle package. Mine had to boil for a
couple of minutes.) Meanwhile, stir-fry broccoli, mushrooms
and other veggies in peanut oil for five minutes. Add
noodles to veggie mixture and stir fry for a couple more
minutes. Top with tamari and dressing in package.

I don’t usually like to use packaged food, but this is a
great thing to keep in the ‘frige for emergency meals.

Note: I found the oriental broccoli salad with the
‘broccoli cole slaw’ at the ‘big’ grocery store (where I
don’t usually shop, but I was in a hurry to feed the kids
before play practice). Broccoli cole slaw is rumored to be
more healthful than the cabbage kind, and it certainly
stir-fried well. If you don’t find the oriental salad, just
use cole slaw mixture along with some oriental salad
dressing or sauce.
