INGREDIENTS

  • 4 tbsps Braggs liquid aminos, I don’t recommend soy sauce, it would be way to salty [1]
    • Try 2 - 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 & 1/2 – 2 & 1/2 tbsps chili garlic sauce, I use 2 & 1/2 and it’s spicy😳 but oh so good
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsps sugar
  • 1/2 tsp granulated garlic
  • 1/4–1/3 cup chopped green onions, green part only, ( 3–4 green onions)
  • 227 grams (1/2 lb) (8 oz) your choice of pasta noodles, I use spaghettini or rice stick noodles

○ Honey maybe 1 - 2 tbsp [2]
○ Crushed read pepper flakes maybe 1 - 2 tsp [3]

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Cook pasta noodles according to package instructions, drain them but don’t rinse them .
  2. While pasta is cooking whisk together first five sauce ingredients in a soup bowl, microwave for 30 seconds or so till sugar is dissolved.
  3. Add cooked pasta, sauce bowl ingredients and green onions to a medium serving bowl, mix with tongs.
  4. Serve and Enjoy!

Tweaks

  1. It doesn't make for a good flavor, soy sauce should make a better fuller flavor.
  2. Try adding honey and use soy sauce to make a better flavor.
  3. Garlic chili sauce adds a little spice and some flavor but for higher heat use crushed red pepper flakes as well.

NOTES

  • I definitely recommend using Braggs for this recipe. regular soy sauce or even lite soy sauce would be to salty. Lite Tamari might work but I haven’t tried this recipe with it.
  • For the chili garlic sauce, it’s up to you how much you use, maybe start with 1 -1 & 1/2 tbsps, if your worried about the heat, you can always add more😊
  • Feel free to add steamed veggies, tofu, toasted sesame seeds or whatever floats your boat. I like these noodles as is for a quick and easy noodle bowl snack on my couch.
  • I would say this recipe feeds 2 people for a meal and 4 people for a snack.
