What I do is boil the water, add noodles until they are cooked. While I'm waiting for my noodles to cook I stir fry up some veggies, maybe some asparagus, mushrooms (cut chunky) tofu, onions, green peppers, then I add the noodles DRAINED to the stir fry with the flavour pack and add some soy sauce. I like to arrange it on my plate with a dollop of sour cream and garnish the side with chili peppers.:thumbsup:
