Halloween has snuck up on us once again this year. It’s the unofficial door opening to the fall/winter holidays. Whoa. The older one gets, the faster time sprints by.
But first things first. It’s the week of Halloween, which could aptly be dubbed Sugar Week. We just handed out like a hundred treat bags filled with All The Candy at a community event this past weekend. {Which means we ate some.}
The Littles are gathering treats all week long from their schools, the community, etc. That’s not even counting the door-to-door candy fest on October 31st.
Thankfully, the boys have agreed to pack up the majority of their non-perishable loot and send it over here instead of turning themselves into glucose monsters. Yessss!
Email me for bribery specs…
As for me…if mini Reese’s PB Cups are in my face…um, I haven’t figured out how to reign in the chocoholic mama in me. If you’ve got ideas, I’m officially taking suggestions.
Chocolate fever aside, I can at least do one thing this week. Make healthy meals.
Whether or not that actually compensates for all the Reese’s wrappers in my office – I’m not the decider of that 😉
This is what I do know. This week is not the week for cheesy ravioli casseroles, no sir. That might be next week.
This week is made for dishes like barley salads and healthy stir fries.
Looking at you, Thai Stir Fry Noodles.
When you do your own stir fries at home, it’s much healthier than restaurant versions, because you control the type and amount of oil used.
You get to throw in extra veggies and lean protein. All without sacrificing delicious flavor.
And since we’re talking rice noodles, this dish can easily be made gluten-free.
Here’s to chocolate and Thai food.
Enjoy 🙂

Now you don’t have to go out for great Pad See Ew. Easily and quickly make your own mouthwatering Thai Stir Fry Noodles at home. Healthier than restaurants and 200% delicious.
Ingredients
- For the Sauce:
- 3 TB soy sauce
- 1 TB pure honey
- 4 TB Asian oyster sauce
- 1 TB vinegar
- 2 TB granulated sugar
- For the Noodles:
- 14 oz wide-cut Asian rice noodles, from Asian aisles of most grocery stores
- 4 TB canola oil
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 large raw boneless/skinless chicken breast, sliced into bite-size pieces and tossed with 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1 entire bunch of clean spinach leaves
- Optional: Sriracha for serving, if you like some heat!
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine all sauce ingredients and whisk to combine well. Set aside.
- Cook rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large wok, add oil and garlic. Stir constantly over medium high heat until fragrant, about 30 sec. Take care that garlic doesn’t burn. Add seasoned/sliced chicken and stir well, about 1 minute. Push browned chicken to edges of wok, leaving a center well. There should still be plenty of oil in the center; add 1-2 TB oil if it’s dry. Crack eggs one at a time into center well. Stir eggs in center until fully scrambled. Add drained rice noodles to the chicken/egg mixture. Add the sauce evenly over noodle mixture.
- Using long chopsticks or spatula, gently toss noodle mixture so it’s fully coated in sauce. Add spinach leaves and stir just to wilt. Remove from heat immediately, and serve while hot. Serve with Sriracha on the side, if desired.
Notes
This dish is best served and devoured right after it’s cooked. Generally speaking, dishes like Pad Thai and Pad See Ew made with rice noodles are best when eaten right away.

This meal was so delicious!!! I think we used the wrong type noodles, but it was still so great, and the 4.5 year old granddaughter (she is not 4!) ate two servings, which just never happens!
That’s awesome, Kaffie!! Thanks so much for coming over and letting us know 🙂
