Sweet and Spicy Chili Garlic Noodles

I had dreams of buttery, spicy, and sweet noodles and this recipe fit the bill! I initially wanted something that could be eaten like a meal in of itself but that would have meant cluttering up these simple noodles with unecessary flavors and textures and I just couldn’t stand for that. So I present these as a simple side which are quick as a flash that are perfect hot or cold, and would go along with just about any grilled protein and sauteed greens. Or heck, just make it for meal prep! [ 301 calories per serving, 46.4 g Carbs, 9.1 g Fat, 8.4 g Protein]
