Pan Fried Noodles with Bacon

This is a quick and easy noodle stir fry dish utilizing basic ingredients that you can find at any grocery store. You can substitute any protein of your liking if bacon isn’t your thing, or add tofu or more vegetables and make this dish vegetarian. I ate the leftovers the next morning with 2 fried eggs on top of the noodles…good at all times of the day.
