directions

  • In a small cup combine dressing ingredients (vinegar - sesame oil), whisking until smooth.
  • In a large pot of boiling water cook noodles according to package directions (my package didn't have cooking directions, so I cooked them for 5 minutes), with a slotted spoon transfer noodles to a colander and drain (reserving cooking water in pot). Rinse under cold running water; drain well. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Return cooking water to a boil. Add shrimp and cook until opaque (3-5 minutes). Rinse under cold water; drain.
  • Combine shrimp, dressing and the remaining ingredients with the noodles; toss to combine.
  • This can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days.

  1. I will be adding this to my WW cookbook. I did misread the recipe and this ended up being a hot noodle dish but still tasty. Made for ZWT 6.
     
  2. DH really loved this ~ for me, it was good, but needed just a bit of something hot in it ... red pepper flakes or some chilies. I'll keep that in mind next time. Went together very quickly as I had everything prepared and ready to throw together. I think I'll also increase the dressing ~ it does get absorbed by the noodles. Thanks for posting ~ made and enjoyed for ZWT 6 - ASIA & the ZWT 6 Asian Diabetic Forum Challenge!
     
  3. This was very tasty, I drizzled a little extra sesame oil over my bowl of noodles!! I used celery, and a yellow pepper, carrot and broccoli, forgot to add the cilantro until after the photo was taken!! I loved the crunchy vegetables and shrimp, I sprinkled some chopped peanuts over top. I will make this again!
     
  4. This made a really wonderful lunch! It's very pretty. I didn't have any snow peas, so increased the amount of cucumber. I doubled the sauce by habit, but next time I will triple or quadruple it as the noodles really absorbed it. I definitely wouldn't go over the 4 ounces of rice sticks for 4 servings. We also served Frank's Red Hot Sauce as a condiment, and everyone used it generously! Thanks, Ellie! Made for Newest Zaar Tag.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
