Spicy Asian Noodles with Mushrooms and Snow Peas - easy recipe to make Asian-style noodles at home. You don't need any complicated ingredients. This recipe uses basic ingredients to create tasty Asian meatless noodles at home.
For the last several weeks, these spicy Asian noodles with mushrooms and snow peas became my staple dish on Monday nights (or any other days that are similar to my hectic Mondays). It's very easy to prepare; takes at most 40 minutes from start to finish, and it's very tasty. The dish is versatile - you can eat it as a vegetarian version, or you can add already cooked fish or meat to it.
This is my perfect recipe for Monday nights. If your Mondays are anything like mine (busy from 9 to 5 with reports and excel spreadsheets at work, plus everybody is trying to catch up with me at the same time), then you will thank me for this recipe. It's mindless, simple, you can do this dish on an auto-pilot, because this recipe does not require much thinking or fiddling. And, in the end, you'll surprise yourself with the dish that's quite excellent in flavor.
Enjoy! Preferably with a very tall fluted glass of a good white wine, especially if you had a hard Monday:

I love easy dinners like this. The flavors sound amazing. It would be a hit in my house for sure!
I love all Asian noodle dishes. I also love the crunch of snow peas, so 60 of them sounds just perfect. 🙂 Lovely dish. Thanks for sharing!
This would totally become my staple! It looks SO good!
Love the simplicity of this recipe! It's easy, but looks so impressive on the dinner table. I would definitely try this recipe with the portabella mushroom....YUM! Thanks for sharing!

That looks delicious! Love the colors... A little sweet, a little sour and with a kick. Great recipe, Julia!
A delicious noodle dish! Exactly the kind of food I love.
Cheers,

LOL you counted the snow peas. What an exacting cook you are. Now the next time I write, "toss a handful of snow peas in" I'll say, Julia said add 60. 🙂
It's amazing how small snow peas are. 60 sounds like so many, while in reality it was such a small volume. 🙂
Love that you counted the snow peas! Sounds like a delicious recipe. Love dishes that combine salty, sweet, and spicy.
These noodles look terrific! Julia: Please, please, a big bowl for me!!!!!!!!!!

A delightful and delicious noodle stir-fry!
I absolutely love meals like this for during the week ... especially after a long day! This looks delicious ... I usually do some kind of stir-fry rice but this would be a great way to switch it up. With a big glass of wine of course : )
Oh yes, glass of wine makes any meal better! 🙂
Nothing like a good stir-fry recipe, the possibilities are endless! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Beautiful dish and beautiful photos--love it! Simple meals we know by heart that comfort and satisfy are so important, without them we are left thinking fast food is our only recourse for little time or energy. Thanks for giving me another one to add to my own recipe box. 🙂
Simple yet delicious looking recipe. just loved the presentation too 🙂
You actually bothered counting?!?! haha.....whenever I'm not sure about a quantity of an ingredient then I just estimate it 😀 My lazy meals after busy days often involve microwaving left-overs (usually chinese take-away leftovers which I get from work too!)....yeah, I'm a lot lazier than you! This looks a lot more appetizing and healthy than my left overs though!
Yes, I did count the peas. I figured, since I didn't have the scale, that was the fastest way for me to measure the ingredient. 🙂 It didn't take me a long time to count them all, but I recognize that's not the most efficient way of measuring ingredients. 🙂
