Jenny's Kielbasa Noodle Stir Fry

This is one of my mother's one pot meals. The combination of rich, salty kielbasa with a light Asian-inspired noodle stir fry is just delicious! Adjust amounts to suit your preferences; personally, I love lots of veggies. Some cooks may prefer to use 2 links of kielbasa (it's so delicious I can't blame you!). Use turkey kielbasa to cut some calories. Prep time will vary depending on whether you chop your veggies or buy them sliced.
