A simple noodle bowl is all that you need to for supper tonight, this Asian Sweet & Spicy Noodle Bowl is perfect for busy nights.

I love to go to this little restaurant where I can create my own noodle bowls. Sometimes my bowls are filled with meat an veggies and I make a spicy hunan sauce. But sometimes, I create this simple noodle filled with rice noodles with a simple sweet & spicy chile sauce. It really is super simple and it’s almost like comfort food…just a big bowl of noodle and my favorite show. I love making this on busy work days while the kids are at school. It whips up in no time at all.
