Asparagus & Shrimp Noodles
This was the result of a very poorly followed recipe. We were pleasantly surprised with the result and will be checking out local Weight Watchers groups tomorrow. The asparagus can be either fresh or frozen. I used frozen and that worked out just fine. Also, if you like more heat, increase the amount of chili paste.
