- 2 c snow peas or sugar snap peas
- 6 cups fresh baby spinach (about 1-2 lb)
Sauce Ingredients
- 1/2 c gluten free soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 1 c veggie or chicken broth
- 2 tbsp sugar

- 1 inch ginger root, grated fine
- 2 Tbsp Better Batter Gluten Free Flour
Optional Add Ons

Instructions
Whisk Sauce Ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk together sauce ingredients, then set aside.
Cook Pasta and Veggies. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, cook veggies - in a large skillet, heat oil over high heat. Add garlic, cooking for 1 minute. Quickly add mushrooms, bell peppers and carrots, and cook, stirring frequently, another 5 minutes - or until colors brighten and veggies soften. Stir in snow peas and spinach. Cook until the spinach has wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Drain. Quickly drain the cooked noodles and stir them into the veggies.
Add the sauce mixture, gently tossing to combine and cook over high heat just until the sauce is absorbed and slightly thickened.
Serve immediately.
