LittleStarSweeper, I found the recipe on Pinterest. It's the first time I'm trying it, so I can't say if it's great or not. Hopefully it's amazing and you like it too!

I will try to plan my week tomorrow. I have been so busy with school stuff and running my teenager everywhere I haven't had time to stop.

LittleStarSweeper, I went to 2 stores near me and neither had fresh basil for some reason. WTF? I feel like that's an important ingredient in Drunken noodles. I'm so sad. I'm still going to make it with dried basil, but I know it won't be the same.

I'm starting my garden (and herb garden) this weekend, so I plan to plant plenty of basil!

Ditto. I used to be good about snacking on veggies. Now I'm like where's the junk food.....
