MUSHROOM BROCCOLI NOODLES

Hi All,

Noodles, though we know noodles is not good for health. Still we make it once in a month, these plain noodles are better than instant noodles.

In order to make the noodles better in health I try to add more and more vegs. Now it is the season of broccoli and I made these mushroom, broccoli noodles.

In love for noodles the vegs will also go inside everyone’s tummy, We can add any number of vegs .
