SPICY NOODLES WITH PORK, SCALLIONS & BOK CHOY
These spicy noodles are inspired by a Chinese dish called Ants Climbing a Tree, named for the way the small pieces of ground pork (the "ants") cling to the noodles (the "tree"). The twist in these healthy noodles comes from adding vegetables like scallions and bok choy.

Steps:
- Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large flat-bottomed wok or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add bok choy whites and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add bok choy greens and cook until wilted, about 1 minute more. Transfer all the bok choy to a medium bowl.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, scallion whites, ginger and chili-bean sauce (or chile-garlic sauce) to the pan. Add pork and cook, crumbling with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Add broth, tamari (or soy sauce) and sugar. Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl and add to the pan. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Stir in the reserved noodles and bok choy; cook, stirring, until heated through, about 1 minute. Serve topped with scallion greens and crushed red pepper, if desired.

PORK AND VEGETABLE LO MEIN (EASY AND DELICIOUS)
My family loves this hearty main dish. I get requests for it often. It's very quick and easy to prepare, great for when you're in a hurry. You can buy a couple of the ingredients already prepared in the produce section of the grocery store, if you like.

Steps:
- ***NOTE:I like to buy the coleslaw mix in the produce section.
- Already shredded--a real time saver.
- ***NOTE:If I'm in a hurry, I also buy the carrots already shredded in the produce section, and use instead of sliced.
- Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet or wok.
- Sauté pork, onion, garlic and pepper flakes until meat is no longer pink.
- Remove this mixture from pan and keep warm.
- Add remaining tbsp of oil (or more as needed) to pan and sauté cabbage, bok choy or celery, carrots and peppers until crisp tender.
- Add spaghetti to cooked veggies in the pan.
- Stir in soy sauce and add pork mixture back to the pan.
- Cook for 5 minutes or until heated through.
- (At this step, I like to get the noodles nice and dark, by cooking a bit longer. You decide).
