Spicy Asian noodles recipe: thrifty and easy (and vegetarian-friendly)
Tips for saving money
Many singles and couples find it difficult to cook at home, so here’s my first attempt at offering a tasty and easy ethnic recipe to try. This is a follow-up to a post I made last month on saving on grocery shopping by going ethnic, addressed mainly to the same audience.
A little preamble: I don’t do complicated dishes. I’m a pretty lazy person when it comes to cooking. (My hubby’s the one who likes long, complicated dishes that involve multiple pots and marinades, and yep, I know I really lucked out in this respect!) The recipes I like involve using only one pot, or two if noodles are involved, and are very forgiving when it comes to measuring, cooking time, and mixing. I find Asian home cooking fits this description very well. Half of the dishes out there involving fried rice or noodles are actually “new” dishes made from leftovers.
