In this Isthmus Eats meal, you will quickly whip up an Asian-inspired rice noodles (aka vermicelli) dish battered with soy sauce, ginger, and garlic, then topped with ground pork, green onions, pickled cucumbers, and cilantro. The pickled cucumbers provide a cool crunchy contrast to the tangy and sharp pork noodles. Rice noodles are a great gluten-free alternative to pasta, and they are faster and easier to cook.

We hope you enjoy, Madison!
