I made these tonight: http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/elises_sesame_noodles.html
It was soooo good.
My variations to the origina were green not red pepper, added 2 cups spinach, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp olive oil in place of canola oil and 1.25cups of xlean ground chicken. It really was delicious and my 2 year old gobbled it up. With the chicken it was 330 cals per cup serving.
Ingredients
1 pound whole-wheat spaghetti
1/2c reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons canloa oil
2 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar, or lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
1 bunch scallions, sliced, divided
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, divided (optional)
4 cups snow peas, trimmed and sliced on the bias
1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup toasted sesame seeds
Preparation
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook spaghetti until just tender, 9 to 11 minutes or according to package directions. Drain; rinse under cold water.
Meanwhile, whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, canola oil, vinegar (or lime juice), crushed red pepper, 1/4 cup scallions and 2 tablespoons cilantro (if using). Add noodles, snow peas and bell pepper; toss to coat.
To serve, mix in sesame seeds and garnish with the remaining scallions and cilantro.
