Sharing is caring, but when it comes to noodles… bye!

Another Sunday is here and it’s time to get ready for next week! Many people are nowadays having their summer vacations, while others are still working. No matter the case, there’s a big possibility many don’t take care of or care about one’s food routines. I usually like to plan my week in terms of dinner at least, so I don’t sit the last minute before dinner and don’t have any idea of what to eat. That is the reason why I today want to give you my simple Thai inspired red curry noodle wok. Perfect weekday food!

Be sure you pick vegan noodles

The stew is completely vegan but be sure you pick vegan noodles too (like for instance rice noodles) so you get the whole dish vegan. Make a big batch like I did today and you have food for at least 4 servings.

It is simple to make too

! love making these kinds of foods where you cook everything in one pot, or possibly two but combining everything together in one pot thereafter. It’s just simple and often gets very delicious!

THIS RECIPE IS:

• Vegan

• Can possibly become vegan too (depending on the choice of noodles)

• Thai food inspired

• Colorful

• Full of flavor

• Simple to make

• Great weekday food

• Great lunch box food

NOTES:

• Be sure you pick noodles without any animalistic products to make this dish completely vegan.
