Yum Yum Noodles...

I've recently stumbled across these sesame noodles at It's a Keeper. The picture looked so yummy and easy I had to try it. It was one of those lazy afternoons where I needed an easy recipe and plus I hand everything on hand. For a little protein in the dish I added some sesame/teriyaki flank steak....



Sesame Noodle Recipe
1/4 cup soy sauce
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
2-3 Tbsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp hot chili oil(didn't have oil, but subst. with Sriracha hot chili sauce)
4-5 Tbsp canola oil( I would use maybe 2-3 tbsp next time)
1 pound spaghetti, cooked
Green onions, chopped

Combine the first 7 ingredients together in a small bowl and whisk until thoroughly combined.  Pour sauce over warm, cooked noodles and top with chopped green onions.

Sesame Steak:
1lb beef flank steak
3 tbs toasted sesame asian dressing by kraft
a splash of low sodium teriyaki sauce

Trim all fat from steak. Tenderize. Cut in strips across the grain. Add steak to a hot skillet. Once browned drain grease. Add dressing and teriyaki sauce. Add to sesame noodles and that's it!

enjoy:)

Spaghetti Squash

I'm sorta takin a break from the crafts to share this yummy discovery I made on Make it and Love It awhile back.  This definitely woke up my taste buds and I didn't have to unbutton my pants with this one..he he. It was nice and light with alot of flavor! And oh sooo easy..
I substituted the beef meatballs with turkey ones!

-Recipe-

Squash:
To sum it up (according to lovely Ashley) you just slice the squash in half, dab a tbs of butter on each slice and let cook in a 400°oven for 45min to 1hr depending on size of squash. While that baby is cooking assemble and cook ur meatballs.

Meatballs:

I sorta just made this up as I went along and they turned out pretty darn good...

-1 lbs lean ground turkey

-3 whole grain slices of bread soaked in milk

-Worcestershire sauce( about a tablespoon I just eye balled it)

-1 clove garlic minced

-salt

-pepper

-1 egg

Mix em all up and form balls, I formed them on a plate of flour to help keep everything together since ground turkey can get real soft and tricky. In a large skillet heat up some EVOO and fry those chubby meatballs until brown on all sides then add your favorite sauce and cook about 10-15 longer or until completely cooked though.

Once your squash is done just get a fork and scrape out little "noodles" and serve with the meatballs. That's it!

enjoy:)
