Notes
Tips and Substitutions
- Break the spaghetti noodles in half before cooking them. This will eliminate long strands that is hard for the kids to handle.
- Swap out the spaghetti noodles for ramen noodles or lo mein noodles.
- If you want to reduce the sodium in this recipe, use Coconut Aminos in place of Soy Sauce.
- Substitute 1 shallot for the green onion.
- Add 1 teaspoon fresh minced ginger along with the garlic in step
- If you want to reduce the amount of sugar, either cut it down to 1 tablespoon or substitute a brown sugar substitute.
- Add shrimp or chicken to the noodles for a complete meal. Fry the protein first in 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, with salt, pepper (to taste), and one tablespoon of soy sauce. Add back to the noodles just prior to serving.

How interesting that the recipe lists brown sugar…but I guess it’s to balance the saltines?
