About


 Everybody loves Chinese food but not always the calories that comes with it. I've been experimenting with fresh Chinese noodles, the kind you can find in the refrigerated section of your grocery store and have come up with a healthy stir fry that is loaded with flavour and goodness. The chicken can be easily substituted for beef, pork or tofu and the vegetables can easily be varied. Total time for this meal was 30 minutes, from start to finish. Not bad for a delicious, week day meal.
