Green Noodles
A healthy way to eat noodles

Oodles of noodles!

I love noodles, do you?

Of course, it’s a known fact that noodles are the favorite food for any kid. My daughter loves noodles so much that she wants to eat it for lunch and also dinner. She loves Maggi Noodles. I don’t give her the noodles all the time, but when I make noodles for her I add mixed veggies, flax powder etc. to make them more nutritious.

I recently saw a recipe for green noodles on a TV show and immediately liked it. The recipe made the regular noodles so nutritious and delicious with the addition of healthy greens. I made this recipe and my daughter said those were the best noodles she has ever eaten.


Ingredients:
  • 2 cups cooked noodles (I used Maggi Noodles)
  • ¼ cup Spinach Puree
  • A few Amaranth Leaves (తోటకూర), chopped
  • 1 tsp Ginger, chopped fine
  • 1 tsp Garlic, chopped fine
  • 1 Green Bell pepper, chopped
  • A few chopped spring Onion (ఉల్లికాడలు) (optional)
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper Powder
  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • Salt
Preparation:
  1. Heat oil in a pan and add spring onion + garlic + ginger + bell pepper and sauté well.
  2. Then add amaranth leaves and stir well. Add spinach paste + salt and fry well.
  3. Finally add the cooked noodles + black pepper powder and stir well.
  4. Keep it on low flame for a few seconds and turn off.
  5. Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy hot. 
  6. Healthy and yummy!!
