Rice noodles are the secret weapon for quick healthy dinners. And they're so easy to prep: Simply pour hot water over dry rice noodles and soak them while you prep the rest of the meal. In about 15 minutes, the noodles are tender with just the right chewy bite. Top them with chopped mixed herbs, lettuce or cabbage, and matchsticks of carrots, zucchini, and fresh jalapeno peppers. Then add grilled chicken, pork, beef, tofu, or shrimp. Sprinkle over some chopped peanuts and add a tasty dressing. With rice noodles on hand, dinner's easy to improvise.

I used rice noodles and soaked them for about 10 minutes did the trick, but make sure to break the noodles before soaking them or you'll have some really long noodles. The noodles, when cooked, will come out with an al dente texture to them. Even Mom's leftovers still had that a day or two later," Jeanne Cupertino says.
