Note

For a vegan version, substitute the country sausage with a plant-based sausage or tofu strips.

You can adjust the heat level by increasing or decreasing the amount of hot red pepper flakes or chili paste.

If using fresh Chinese noodles, cook them according to package directions, usually for a shorter time than dried pasta.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water to restore moisture.
