Meatless Monday: Udon Noodle Stir-fry

First, I will apologize to those of you who have been following this blog and looking forward to a post last Monday.  I went to visit my mom for a week, and totally forgot to post a recipe!

But no worries, I am back :)

This weeks recipe was inspired by my mother-in-law, who introduced me to the deliciousness of Udon Noodles.  These Asian noodles are kind of like thick spaghetti, but softer.  I like to use them in stir-fries, so this week I am featuring a REALLY EASY stir-fry that ANYONE could make.  And it's really inexpensive too!  A great meal for those of you who will be going to college or university next month!

Here it is!

I know it may not LOOK that amazing, but it's really yummy.

Udon Noodle Stir-Fry (this recipe makes 1 serving)

Ingredients:

1 tbsp olive oil

Extra-Firm Tofu, cut into 1 inch cubes - about 1/4 of a pack)

Chopped veggies of your choice (I used 1/4 red pepper, 1/4 yellow pepper, 1 thick slice eggplant, 1/4 onion, and 1 portabella mushroom)

Udon Noodles (I got these from Zehrs for about $0.35)

Asian Sesame salad dressing (I like Renee's) - 1 to 2 tbsp

Directions:

1) Heat the olive oil in a wok or frying pan (medium heat).

2) Add the onion and cook until it starts to soften.  Then add the rest of the veggies and the tofu.  Cook until the veggies are tender-crisp.

3) Add the noodles and the dressing.  Cook until the noodles and dressing are heated through.

4) That's IT!  You're done!  Eat!
