Spicy Stir-Fried Noodles (WFPBNO)

I had a little of this and a little of that in the frig. I wasn't sure how to use it up. I decided to do a stir-fry with noodles, which I seem to have an abundance of these days. So, feel free to use what you have in the frig and whip up this dish. It's not that spicy to me but for those of  you that are sensitive you may want to start with less sambal oelek (chile paste with garlic). You can always add more to your plate and give it a good stir. This made about 6 servings; if you use less veg or more you may get a different amount of servings. 

• 1 recipe Ginger Garlic Tofu
• 1 pound long pasta, I used a thin fettuccini
• 1 heaping tablespoon minced cheater garlic
• 1 head baby bok choy
• 3-4 handfuls baby spinach
• 1 1/2 cups broccoli florets
• 3 tablespoons sambal oelek (chili paste with garlic)
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce 

Be sure your tofu is cooking before you start this dish. Start your water to cook your pasta. Make the sauce: add the chile paste, lime juice, hoisin and soy sauce to a bowl. Taste, if you want it sweet add a drop of  honey or maple syrup. Set aside.

While the pasta cooks add your steam basket the last few minutes and steam the broccoli florets. Once pasta is done remove from water with the broccoli and set the water aside. You may need 1/2 cups or so to thin out your sauce.

To a large pan or Dutch oven add a few tablespoons of water and saute the garlic for 30 seconds, stirring frequently. 

Add the cooked pasta to the pan and stir well.

Add the spinach and broccoli to the pasta. Toss well. Turn off the heat, but leave the pan on the burner.

Add the sauce and toss to combine everything. If it's too dry add a little of your pasta water.

Plate the pasta and add some tofu to your dish. Feel free to garnish with sesame seeds, sliced scallions or some red pepper flakes. I add a squirt of Sriracha to mine.
