Cilantro-Ginger Noodle Salad

Standard

First and foremost, I am not the creator of this recipe but I did tweak the original a bit to my liking. The first time I made this, I was so IMPRESSED I drove some to my  very dear friend of mine Brittany. After she tried it and confirmed it was indeed as good as I thought it was. Her daughter Vanessa (who is a teenager, so you know she will be honest…..if it sucks) walked in the room and even she loved it!  Turns out…Yep it  really is that good. Thanks Brit and V for being such trusting taste testers for me!! I really appreciate it!
