Asian Style Cabbage & Noodles

After learning the health benefits of cabbage, Jason and I have been trying to eat more. A couple days ago we bought a head of cabbage for the stir fry I made. We still had half left, so while making my bento for tomorrow, I thought some cabbage in my noodles would be a good way to get some extra cabbage in my diet and help use some of it up.

I’ll wait until tomorrow to post the whole bento, but here’s a little teaser.

Asian Style Cabbage & Noodles

1 serving asian style noodles
1 slice cabbage, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp chili garlic paste
1 tsp soy sauce
1 green onion stalk, sliced
1/4 tsp sesame oil
salt and pepper to taste
red pepper flakes to taste

Get water boiling in a small saucepan. Once it is boiling add cabbage and garlic and cook for a minute, then add the noodles. Add chili paste and cook until noodles are done (about 3 minutes). Drain water and add green onion, sesame oil, and seasonings to taste. The water could also be left to make a soup.
