Vegan Fried Rice Noodles

I love rice noodles because you don't have to boil them - they cook in a bowl of hot water! So it's that much easier at the campsite.

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

8 oz. rice vermicelli (can be found in the Asian section of the supermarket)

1 T. oil, we only bring olive oil when we camp

1 small head of broccolli, cut into small florets and peeled stems cut into sticks (about 2 cups)

1/2 lb. carrots, cut into sticks (about 2 1/2 cups)

1 clove garlic,  minced

3/4 c. vegetable broth

3 T. soy sauce

1 t. sugar

2 scallions (green onions) thinly sliced (1/2 c.)

Directions:

1.  Soak the noodles in a bowl of hot water for 5-10 minutes until al dente, then drain.

2.  Saute the garlic in the oil being careful not to burn it. 

3. Add the veggies and saute for about a minute.

4.  Mix in the broth, soy sauce and sugar and simmer 2 or 3 minutes.

5.  Add the noodles and simmer another 3 minutes.

6.  Top with the sliced scallions.

7.  Yum!
