This is a take on hot spicy noodles with added super veggies, Kale and Mushrooms--with walnuts for protein it becomes an easy meatless dinner --perfect for vegetarians and for meatless days in Lent. This is a take-off off on many sesame noodle recipes with the addition on walnuts and kale to give it more body. —Robyn Mixon
