I love this recipe! I have made it three times and can't wait to have it again. I have added asparagus to it and it works well.

I altered this recipe and used chicken. In addition to the spinach I added green beans and shredded carrot. It was pretty spicy with the two teaspoons sriracha, which we like, but if you don't want it too hot, cut down to 1 tsp sriracha.

I admit we used full sodium dark soy sauce and omitted the extra salt, but this one's in the monthly rotation. My husband eats ALOT of Asian food and he likes this one. Nice to have a beef option.

Way too sour!!! Reduced vinegar to 1 Tbsp, and added at least 1 Tbsp agave syrup, and it was edible.

Like all cooking light recipes, the salt was a little low. But otherwise it was really good.

I thought this was very good! I love rice noodles so I was glad to have a recipe to use them. The changes I made were vegetable oil instead of canola, no mushrooms. I actually quadrupled the recipe for 7 people. We did have leftovers. I only used 1/4 of the Sriracha and probably had a little too much lime juice. I loved it, the kids were split on the rice noodle part. I would make this again.

WAY loved this recipe! Super easy to make in a snap! Only substitution was the Sriracha - we used Sambal Oelek (ground chili paste). Oh we also used Fettuccine instead of rice noodles. With as much liquid as there is I would increase noodles to more than 6 ounces. A real keeper!
