Wednesday’s Helping: Alternate Ingredients for Japanese Yakisoba

Remove pork for health

Yes, try making this stir-fry with chicken or shrimp for healthier servings of Yakisoba.  If you wanna go completely meatless, the tofu substitutes well for the pork and shrimp.  Meanwhile, remember that imitation crab provides the seafood taste without the calorie content found in shrimp and other shellfish.  Try adding julienned baby corn, bamboo shoots, or shitake mushrooms for a more satisfying bite.  Lastly, add red pepper flakes, sriracha, or garlic chili paste for a spicier result that’s HOTTER.
