Stir Fried Noodles with Vegetables

I love Stir Fried Noodles with lots of vegetables in it. Whenever I think of Stir Fried Noodles, it just reminds me of a Chinese fast food near my place. Their noodles and fried rice are the best. There are many versions of Stir Fried Noodles. My version contains a lot of veggies and it’s spicy. You can adjust according to your spice level. When I first tried it I just threw in some sauces, pepper flakes, vegetables, oil and noodles and it was so tasty. Next time I made sure I keep track of the right amount of ingredients and here is the recipe for you.
