Time for a Quick Bite

Yes, I know : /

But ya know what?  This is actually what I had for dinner twice this week.  It comes up so quickly, it’s fast, delicious, and easy.  Also, it’s great bc I almost always have Kimchi on hand.  Mama used to make this for us with Somen but I really like the texture of these Buckwheat Noodles.  I’m a big ole’ weirdo and am fascinated with the most mundane things when it comes to food.  I really like how shiny these noodles are.  They almost look like shiny Acorn Jelly Straws or something (yes, I 100% fully admit my weirdness, lol).

This is what they look like pre-cooked (just in case you’re not familiar with Buckwheat Noodles)

They’re super inexpensive…the place I go to has them for not even $4 and 1 bundle does it for me each time so they last forever!

This is what you’ll need:

I promise to let up with the Kimchi now…just had to squish this in there bc they’re really that awesome.  So easy a baby could do it (maybe) =D
