Directions

- While noodles are cooking, heat 1 Tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add sliced beef and sear for 2-3 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, add another Tablespoon of oil. Add garlic, ginger, and mixed vegetables. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until veggies are crisp tender.

- Add the cooked noodles and beef to the pan. Toss everything until evenly coated in the sticky glaze.

Notes
- Oil: I like to use avocado oil because it can tolerate high heat that’s typically used for stir fry.
