My DH and I loved this recipe. We served it over brown rice instead of noodles. Quick, delicious and, I'm sure, a healthier alternative to take out. I added about a Tbsp and a half of ginger instead of what the recipe calls for and 2 Tbsp of low sodium soy sauce. This cooked so quickly, it is perfect for a weeknight dinner. I highly recommend this recipe.

There is not enough flavor to this recipe and I would recommend adding some mushrooms and a little hot chili oil to the finished product. Otherwise, it is pretty good and much better than takeout.

I omitted the egg noodles and served over brown rice instead. Very good and low calorie.
