Erma's Cooked Noodles Recipe

How to make it

---

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Do NOT add oil to your water.
• The oil coats the noodles and gives your sauce nothing to hold onto.
• Add the seasonings and noodles.
• You may change up the seasoning to suit you, these are just what I used...
• Cook until tender - OR - Al dente.
• Drain and rinse with cool / cold water.
• This stops the cooking process.

• In cheap little fold over sandwich bags, place 1/2 cup of noodles.
• Press all of the air out.
• I kind of push the noodles to the bottom of the bag,
• then roll it up and pull the flap over all of it.
• I place these into a gallon size freezer bag to keep them
• from freezer burn.
• Place in freezer.
• I kept them in the door of the freezer for easy access.

• When ready to use, take out one bag of noodles,
• microwave for 1 minute.
• Pour into bowl.
• Add 1/2 cup chopped frozen spinach, or other veggies, if you prefer.
• 1 tablespoon favorite sauce (white or red),
• I use 2 Tablespoons now....
• 1 chopped up cooked / baked chicken thigh / breast.
• Microwave until warm.
• Enjoy!

• NOTE:
• Do NOT add oil to the water, when you use oil you coat
• the outside of the pasta and the sauce has nothing
• to cling to.
• I like my noodles to hold the sauce, not let it sink to the bottom of my bowl.
