This quick hearty dish is simple to prepare and ready in just 40 minutes. We cut the cook time by having the shrimp cook with the pasta and cut the clean-up by using the same pasta pot to stir-fry the vegetables and make the sauce. Yummy noodles topped with crunchy vegetables all finished in a Chinese-inspired sauce makes this fun-to-eat dish is great for kids as well as adults. Add more vegetables or use different ones in the dish to make it your own. Leftovers are delicious and can be served warm or at room temperature.
