8/27/2011 Basket - Lazy-man Noodles

Sometimes we're not very hungry - not hungry enough to make a big meal anyways. So when we have extra vegetables laying around, we make Lazy-man Noodles. Think of it as "Hamburger Helper," but for vegetables.

Lazy-man Noodles
Uses: Broccoli, carrots

Cook broccoli and carrots in any manner you like (steam, stir-fry, boil, etc.), remembering that carrots take longer to cook than broccoli. While the vegetables are cooking, follow directions on noodle pouch to cook noodles. Today we used this:



Once the noodles had boiled in the water/milk mixture for eight minutes (as indicated on the package), I added the cooked vegetables to the noodles and mixed it all up in the sauce the noodles cooked in. Then I let it sit for two minutes before serving. The sauces in these noodle packets are so tasty that you can pretty much add any vegetables to them, and they turn out great.
