Wow! This has got some kick to it! We loved this. It had such great flavor. I wasn't sure how many packages of udon to use so I only got two, which turned out to be a shame because three would have been perfect (I had a lot of leftover sauce and veggies without noodles). This was really fun to make because as you are putting all of these crazy ingredients together you can't imagine it turning out right...BUT it does and it is SO GOOD! Thanks Queen E!

I've been hanging around Zaar for a while, now and have found some really awesome recipes, but more importantly, some really awesome people.
I'd like to thank all of you who have taken the time to try my recipes. Your reviews are a bright spot in my day.
I believe that life is a collection of lessons that we must do our best to learn. One that I'm working on now is not judging those who judge others. I've come across this quote and thought I'd put it here: "The world is long on judgment and short on understanding. Judging is easy and self-satisfying. Understanding requires perspective, experience, and empathy."-Unknown
