After the great
Spring Roll debate of 2011, I was a little leery to try out another Asian inspired recipe from Pampered Chef. Blasphemy? Blashphe-you, my friend, I was down-heartened and it took everything in Thomas' power to get me to finish up dinner in the kitchen. Truth be told, it wasn't that bad, I just took so long to roll all of those spring rolls that I didn't want to go back and do anything else.
Luckily, I have a great
partner in crime husband who was willing to stir fry the beef for me to get me started. In fact, he
is such a sucker loves me so much that he put the beef in our
Ginger Wasabi sauce the night before to marinade. He fried it up, and it was perfect! Such a great taste, and it was ready for me to continue on with the recipe for
Asian Beef Noodles (I just didn't add any extra ginger since there wasn't any fresh in the house, but there was some in the sauce).
The best part about this recipe is that it was ready within 10 minutes, start to finish.
Second best: the taste! After our less than stellar spring rolls, this was very flavorful, and
exactly what I was looking for. (The taste would have been the best part about this, but I was spent and 10 minutes for an awesome meal was exactly what I needed.)
Third best? The leftovers. Not only did I have four dishes of lunches, but they really re-heat well and are a good filler for your mid-day snackage.
And finally - when (since college/your post high school experience) can you say you endorse ramen noodles for a filling meal??! On a scale from cupcakes to Capricorns, I'd give this recipe two thumbs up!
