Spicy Fried Noodles

This was another Asian dish that tasted really good. I had some rice sticks I had bought for fun. (I had never tried them before.) It was a success, because my family came back for second and thirds. =)


Ingredients:


1 pkg. of rice sticks 6.75 oz pkg or egg thread noodles
3 T coconut oil
3 garlic cloves minced (let sit for 10 min before cooking for extra benefits)
2 scallions sliced thinly
1 pkg. peeled cooked shrimp 140z
1 28 oz stir fry vegetables (mix had bean sprouts and water chestnuts in it too)
2 T coconut sugar or other sweetener
2 eggs beaten
1 T crushed red chili pepper
3 T cilantro
*optional hoison sauce

Directions:

1, Place rice sticks in a bowl of hot water that covers it. Let it sit 20 minutes to soften it.

2. In the meantime, heat up pan with oil, garlic and scallions. Fry and stir a couple minutes. Then cut up rice sticks and cook 5 more minutes.

3. Pour in vegetables, shrimp, sugar, and red pepper. Stir for a couple minutes.

4. Add the beaten eggs. Stir them in till all mixed. Put the lid on and let it all cook together for 5 to 10 minutes on medium heat.

5. Garnish with cilantro and serve.

6. I had some hoisin sauce that tasted good on it too. Tasty meal!

*You could use chicken in place of shrimp or have a combo of both. :)
