Description

Directions

• Prepare the noodles according to package directions. Drain, rinse in cold water, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, place a large skillet over medium heat on the stovetop.
• Add the oil.
• Saute the onion and celery until crisp tender. (If slicing carrots, add here)
• Add in the shredded carrots, green cabbage, and water chestnuts. Stir until all the vegetables are tender.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, and brown sugar.
• Spiralize a small zucchini and add it to the cooked vegetables. Stir and cook for 1 more minute.
• Combine the veggies and the cooked noodles. Pour the sauce over and toss to coat evenly.
• Add a generous amount of freshly cracked pepper (to taste) and a bit more oil or soy sauce if needed. (I always add a bit more soy sauce to mine, but I like saltier dishes!)
• Enjoy immediately with some fresh green onions if desired.
