Prep time: 0:15 Overall time: 0:40

Servings: 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

3 Tbs olive oil
8 oz spaghetti, cooked al dente and drained
1 lb pork tenderloin, sliced thinly into strips
1 medium onion, sliced in wedges
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/8 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (or more to taste)
2 cups shredded cabbage (see note below)
2 stalks bok choy, sliced (or celery ribs)
1 cup sliced carrot (see note below)
2 sweet bell pepper, thinly sliced (red-orange-or yellow)
1/3 cup soy sauce

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet or wok. Saute pork, onion, garlic and pepper flakes until meat is no longer pink. Remove this mixture from pan and keep warm.

Add reamining tbsp of oil (or more as needed) to pan and saute cabbage, bok choy or celery, carrots and peppers until crisp tender. Add spaghetti to cooked veggies in the pan. Stir in soy sauce and add pork mixture back to the pan. Cook for 5 minutes or until heated through. (At this step, I like to get the noodles nice and dark, by cooking a bit longer. You decide.).

CHEF COMMENTS

My family loves this hearty main dish. It's very quick and easy to prepare, great for when you're in a hurry. You can buy a couple of the ingredients already prepared in the produce section of the grocery store, if you like.

* I like to buy the cole slaw mix in the produce section. Already shredded--a real time saver.

** If I'm in a hurry, I also buy the carrots already shredded in the produce section, and use instead of sliced.
