It’s heating up here in the valley – the temperature was 103 today – eek!

I’ve been making light and easy meals. Simple flavors that are easy to make and easier to enjoy. You can relate, right? 😋

I’m excited to share this meal with you today and the toughest part? Deciding if I should call it a noodle bowl or noodle salad… so I opt’d for Teriyaki Noodles and I’m going to let you decide!

Why? Because the first time I made this we grilled some shrimp to top off the bowl and subsequent servings were simply big bowls of noodles. Then I served them cold and I realized these noodles would be fantastic as a salad for a cookout on a hot summer day too. No mayo – perfect for a buffet – so you see? That was my dilemma!

Teriyaki Noodle Bowl – The noodle bowl is mixed with green onions, shredded carrots and snow peas. Topped with sesame seeds and cilantro.

Teriyaki noodles are always a favorite for take out, but do you know how easy they are to make at home? So simple and delicious and definitely a hundred times yummier!

Now… I’m not going to lie, this dish isn’t completely authentic because I use … {gasp}…. thin spaghetti noodles. Why? Because I like that I can use whole grain noodles which are high in fiber. So please, use your favorite!
