You guys know that I like meals to be easy, easy, EASY! Because honestly, on most nights 30 minutes is about the max that I can spend on dinner. And I work from home. I love meals that take 10 minutes to prep (like my easy baked ziti) and then just need some time in the oven but there are most certainly times when you just need dinner on the table minutes from when you start it.
Stir frys are the answer for quick and healthy dinners and this one is SO good: it’s a flavorful noodle bowl that tastes like takeout AND is packed with protein and fresh vegetables.
Udon noodles – let’s talk about them! So you may have had them out, but chances are that you’ve never cooked with them. (At least I hadn’t until now.) Udon noodles are a Japanese wheat-based noodle. I love them because they are thick and have a great chewy texture and because they are frequently found fresh, you don’t even have to boil water, just throw right into the stir fry.
For this easy udon noodle stir fry we’re going to quickly sauté some ground pork with mushrooms and napa cabbage and then an easy sauce. It’s another meal that includes all of the components I always go for (protein, veggies, flavor, starch!) in one bowl. I’m not sure if it’s the cozy winter season or what, but I’ve been loving these all-in-one dinner bowls lately.
I got everything I needed for this easy udon noodle stir fry from Milk & Eggs, and as a reminder: it’s very CSA meets farmers market meets grocery store delivery service. I love getting groceries from them because the food is high-quality and the convenience factor is THE BEST! Grocery shopping with one child was doable, but two seems impossible these days so having groceries delivered just makes life a little easier, and I’m all about that. (If you live in LA or Orange County and want to try it out, they are offering my readers $15 off any order over $35! Use the code “emily” in checkout. FREE FOOD!!!)
Dinner’s ready in 20 – let’s get to it!
