It’s a salad with noodles.

It’s noodles with a salad?

Does this qualify as a salad?

I think so.

I stumbled across this recipe one day as I was watching The Pioneer Woman, by Ree Drummond. I just love her show. Between her down to earth personality and the fact she owns a cattle ranch and makes delicious recipes, I’m a fan. On this particular show, she was whipping up some sesame noodles and I immediately had to make them. My mouth was watering!

I made a few healthy swatches and made these sesame noodles for lunch. Let me just say…

I love it. My husband loves it, you will love it.

To Make:

1. Cook your noodles in a large pot, per package instructions
2. In a skillet, cook the ground beef until no longer pink
3. Whisk all sauce ingredients (except green onions) together in a bowl.
4. In a serving bowl, first lay the arugula down, then add noodles, then beef, then top with a few large spoonfuls of the sauce, top with green onions and hot chili paste, if desired
