I whipped up this quick, easy and healthy lunch in about 15 minutes this morning using items I had on hand.  The following recipe is for one serving, but it could be easily doubled, tripled or quadrupled to feed more people.  I hope to evoke envy in my lunch mates at school today!  ;)

Healthy Stir Fry Lunch

3 oz (dry) rice noodles (I used Thai Kitchen Brand)

1 medium to large broccoli crown, cut into florets

3 oz cooked chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 cup fresh parsley, chopped

1 green onion, sliced thin

1 tsp carraway seeds (or another spice of your choice, such as cumin seeds, or omit)

1/2 tbl olive oil

1/2 tbl toasted sesame oil

1  tbl Bragg’s Liquid Aminos or Tamari, more if needed (both are gluten free)

Sriracha Hot Sauce, to taste (optional, for those who like a little spice)

1. Boil water with a pinch of added salt.  Add rice noodles.  Cook for 5 minutes.  Add broccoli to noodle water and blanch for 1 minute.  Drain broccoli and noodles in a collander.

2. Add sesame and olive oil to a pan.  Heat on medium to low heat and add green onion.  Cook for about a minute, taking care not to burn.  Add cooked noodles and broccoli, along with the Liquid Aminos or Tamari.  Add chicken breast and carraway seeds.  Stir fry ingredients together for a minute or so.  Add chopped parsley and stir fry a minute more.  Add Sriracha sauce if using.

3. Transfer to your lunch pail and enjoy!
