Get the family to help toss them with nibbles of garlicky, sesame-studded ground beef, plus pan-softened bok choy and carrots (pre-cut, might we add). A shot of teriyaki glaze ties it all together, with peanuts on top to make it extra-tempting.

Boil the noodles
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles; stir gently to separate. Boil, 5 to 7 min., until al dente. Reserving ½ cup cooking water, drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.

Combine the noodles
To the pan of beef and vegetables, add the noodles, teriyaki glaze and ½ the reserved cooking water. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until combined. If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
