Ingredients
- 8 oz potato noodles (glass noodles or sweet potato noodles)

- Optional: 1 cup sautéed mushrooms or spinach

Instructions

- Add cooked noodles to the sauce. Toss well to coat and cook for 2–3 more minutes.

Notes
For best texture, avoid overcooking the noodles. Simmer the sauce gently to prevent curdling. Optional veggies or proteins should be added after the sauce thickens to avoid watering it down.
