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:

Keeping this recipe
Pinned this awhile ago, and finally made it tonight. Added shrimp, and used brown rice pasta.....absolutely delicious!
This was really good. I just wanted to comment because to save dishes, I added the snow peas to the pasta water about half way through the cooking. Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
I made this using kelp noodles and asparagus(it's what I had in the fridge). So yummy!! Thanks
Yes, asparagus does go well with Asian flavors! Glad you liked it! I had to look up what "kelp noodles" were - what an interesting alternative to regular pasta! I love how they look, and that they are low carb and gluten free! Need to buy them and try them out!
Great Idea. I made this for my husband last night and he loved it! Thank you.
Thanks for stopping by, Katherine, and glad your husband loved it! 🙂
This sounds like such a tasty and easy dinner!
I love snow peas! Easy meals are always my favorite meals--this looks delicious!
Yes, easy is the key especially on the weeknights!
A delicious noodle dish! Would like this kind of food, spicy and healthy!
This is just the type of simple and tasty dish we all need on busy work days.
Oh these flavors sound perfect together! I've been on an Asian food kick lately....think I'll keep it going 🙂
