noodles in the morning

rice noodles, tofu, beef broth
to get more fruits & veggies per day, i gave up traditional breakfast for a morning smoothie & a bowl of noodly vegetables an hour later--it's delicious & very versatile, similar to udon soup

ingredients:
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 cup mixed veggies--either green beans, red or yellow bell peppers, peas, zucchini or yellow squash slices, or carrot coins
1/2 cup gluten free noodles--either Kroger penne pasta, Ronzoni rotini, or A Taste of Thai rice noodles
1 serving of either tofu, or a precooked egg (scrambled or hardboiled), or some leftover beef, pork, or ham
1+ tbsp of either raw walnut pieces or almonds
1 tsp - 1 tbsp of either tamari, Hikari minute miso paste, or beef or chicken bouillon (as free of fodmap ingredients as you can find)

what to do:
saute 1/2 cup veggies in olive oil breifly
add water to cover veggies (1+ cup)
bring to a boil
add 1/2 cup noodles & cook per package instructions
while cooking noodles & veggies, slice 1 serving of tofu, egg, or meat into serving bowl
put nuts in serving bowl too
when noodles are soft, pour noodles & veggies into bowl
stir in tamari or bouillon
good with a dash of cayenne or black pepper

makes:
1 serving (calories vary)

notes:
carrots may take longer to cook than the other veggies listed above so use thin coins or slice baby carrots lengthwise thinly
