No matter what recipe they're used in, rice noodles are a proven crowd-pleaser. I think this spicy chicken noodles dish is perfect for using up leftover chicken, assuming it wasn't horribly overcooked in the first place. If you did want to use raw chicken, go ahead and chop it up, and stir-fry it for a minute or two before adding your vegetables.
Ingredients
- 1 large carrot , finely sliced or shredded
- 2 cups shredded green cabbage
- 1 red bell pepper , thinly sliced

Heat large skillet over high heat; drizzle in vegetable oil. When oil is hot (almost but not quite smoking), add the vegetable mixture. Cook and stir until vegetables are hot and steamy, 1 or 2 minutes. Pour in sauce; cook and stir over high heat until sauce starts to bubble, about 1 minute. Add noodles and chicken. Cook and stir to blend ingredients and ensure ingredients are hot, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add chopped cilantro; stir.

Baked Ham with Sweet Glaze
This recipe was handed down through my family. My grandmother made it, my mother still makes it, and we all love it to pieces! I love the glaze because it's simple, easy, and delicious. The ham is great as a Boxing Day feast or for any occasion, such as a potluck. Pair it with any side dish, or just pick at it throughout the week. It's great leftover or chopped into a fresh green salad.
