With only a few basic ingredients, these noodles really pack a flavor punch! Mom hack—if your kids complain about spicy food like mine do, you could make them a small batch with just pork, spinach, linguine, and a drizzle of soy sauce.

Gluten-Free: Use gluten-free pasta noodles and tamari sauce, instead of soy sauce.

Paleo: Use zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash noodles. Use coconut aminos, instead of soy sauce.

Vegetarian: Omit pork and replace with tofu, if desired.
