Yakisoba Noodles With a Kick (Vegetarian)

Submitted by zaar junkie

"We had bought some fresh Yakisoba noodles and my boyfriend sort of threw this recipe together. It turned out really well, especially since we like things rather spicy. I've made this with just the chili-garlic sauce and also with a mix of the chili black bean and black bean garlic sauce. Pick your favorite sauce or a combination that sounds good to you."

I loved this...and I really loved that it's low in sodium...no soy sauce with this one...I did change just a couple of things...I used red peppers instead of green...thought the added color would look nice and I made mine a non vegetarian dish...I used real beef...Yummy! My choice of sauce was the hot chili-garlic one...this is a keeper thanks for posting it...made for Fall PAC 2012
