I grew up eating Filipino food because I had Filipino neighbors and went to school with a bunch of Filipino kids. When they would come to school with pancit I’d always try to trade them for my ham sandwich, which never worked. When I went to a Filipino birthday party, you could find me close to the giant bowl of pancit refilling my plate. Because there was always a giant bowl of pancit and I love it.
While pancit is traditionally made with rice noodles, I swapped them out for these noodles which are a great source of iodine. Coupled with all the veggies, this is a super healthy meal. You can also make a ton of it at once like I did to eat for lunch throughout the week.
