    Very good! Really liked the different taste from our usual menus. Added frozen stir fry veggies to help stretch the meal out a bit. Thumbs up from my husband - 1/28/09

    Very good and very easy to make. Lots of flavor. I eliminated the onion and added carrots, green pepper and bean sprouts to up the veggies. This is a great recipe to take to work for lunch as it's good either hot or cold. - 4/21/09

    This dish must be good, but it has way too much sodium and cutting down the soy is the way to make this more healthful. - 4/3/09

    Yummy - I tripled the recipe for a party of 40 folks. Used it as a side dish and therefore omitted the chicken. Got rave reviews. Why did I shop for anything at Costco?! Everyone loved the SparkRecipes more :) - 1/13/09

    I made this tonight, but did not put chicken in it. It was a side dish with pork chops. I also shredded carrot in it, in place of onion since my husband doesn't care for onion. - 1/30/09

    This is deliious - as good as some restaurants. Next time I will use 1/2 of the soy sauce - even with lo-sodium soy sauce still too much sodium for someone with high blood pressure. Loved the flavor! - 4/16/08

    This was a great-tasting and quick meal. I added some white onion sauteed in a tiny bit of sesame oil and a splash of fish sauce, shredded carrots, and julienned cucumber (added separately in the tracker) to bulk up the servings to a generous meal size for 4, and it was great. - 4/13/11

    Wow. What a tasty dish. The next time I make it I am going to add a bit more heat (fresh chili sauce) because I like it a bit more spicy. - 2/27/10

    No a big Thai food fan, but this was excellent. Husband loved it, he added extra crushed red peppers to his plate, he loves a little extra heat. He's looking forward to the leftovers for lunch. Will make again for sure. - 8/25/09

    I made this for supper tonight & everyone enjoyed it! I used cubed firm tofu instead of chicken, added a little extra lime juice & I used ginger powder instead of fresh ginger. Otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. I like the idea of about adding extra veggies ~ I may try that next time. - 7/6/09

    The whole family thought this was great. In fact, we're having it again tonight. It lends itself well to many vegetables and the spicyness can be adjusted to your family's tastes. I will probably add more nuts or seeds to give it additional crunch. Terrific for a summer meal! - 4/9/08

    This was great! A good low-cal alternative to some of those pre-packaged thai noodle mixes. Definitely be sure to use the low-sodium products suggested otherwise I think this would be too salty. - 11/4/07

  • Really good! I used whole wheat vermicelli & added 1 tsp. honey to balance the sauce for me. Also added extra veggies (broccoli and carrots) to increase the portion. I've had it for lunch every day and I'm still looking forward to eating it again. Might add a few sliced almonds for more crunch. - 1/10/13

  • I was nervous making this recipe as I have never had Thai food before but last night I went out for dinner and had a Thai Noodle Salad and decided to try it. This recipe is so easy and yummy! I was not able to find vermicelli so I used whole wheat linguini instead. Will be making this again! - 7/25/12

  • I also lessened the salt (and then added fish sauce), but very good and easy to make, especially if I just substitute frozen cut onions and peppers for the veggies. - 11/29/11

  • Excellent recipe! Couldn't find vermicelli, so I just used spaghetti. We took it to a party, and everyone loved it! I will make this again--will be a perfect dish to make ahead and take for lunch at work! - 10/2/11
