I’m not saying this recipe is going to get you a bikini body, but it sure satisfies that take-out noodle craving, especially on a hot August night in New York City! And, it’s seriously so much better than anything you could ever order out. If you’re looking to add more protein, garnish with some shrimp, tofu, chicken, or egg. I hope you enjoy as much we did!
