½ onion chopped coarsely
½ bell pepper
½ carrot
1 t ginger
1 t garlic
1 t cider vinegar
2 T tamari or soy sauce
Pepper to taste

Follow packet instruction for cook time. Drain promptly. In a wok, add in onions, bell pepper, carrot and garlic. Cook on medium for around 5 minutes till the onions begin to turn translucent. Cook further depending on whether you like stir fry style or cooked through fully.

Finally add in drained noodles and stir in well. To make stirring easier, it may be helpful to snip the noodles with a knife or scissors. If necessary add additional seasoning. Here by the way is a Sweet Potato noodle variation posted on RoodonFood recently.
