Spicy Shrimp Bowls

If you are craving asian takeout food, this is a quick & easy alternative that’s packed with the same flavors but with added nutrients. Asian sauces can be high in sugar and sodium but these ingredients really aren’t necessary for good flavor. That’s why we prefer making our own with simple ingredients like ketchup, lime juice, siracha and fish sauce.

Shrimp are a great source of lean protein that add a unique flavor and work perfectly in stir-fried dishes. Brown rice noodles are an upgrade to noodles made with refined grains in most popular noodle dishes.

This comes together so quickly making it a perfect weeknight meal!
