5:30 CHALLENGE: 5 INGREDIENTS, 30 MINUTES

Asian rice noodles are the quickest way to satisfy a carb craving. Simply hydrate with boiling water and they're ready in about 5 1/2 minutes. A simple sauce coats the noodles with flavor that's slightly sweet, slightly salty and slightly pungent. Add sauteed shrimp, sliced chicken or vegetables and dinner is on the table in less than 10 minutes. Amazing.
