  • ½ cup green onion thinly sliced
  • ½ cup carrot peeled & julienne
  • ½ cup cucumber sliced into match sticks
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro rough chop
  • ½ cup zucchini sliced into match sticks (optional)

Notes

For the mung bean noodles: I use only ½ an individual portion & made according to package directions by soaking in hot water. These really expand and I prefer to have more veggies than noodles. 
If I'm using a package of Shirataki: I'll thoroughly rinse them, and pat dry.
