- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 tbsp honey I found a spicy honey at my local grocery store - works a treat here!

- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (more or less - depending on your spice level

Instructions
- Prepare your noodles as per package directions. Drain and toss with 2 Tbsp butter or oil after cooking and let melt so it doesn't stick together.

- Add ground meat to the fried onions, garlic and ginger and break up and toss until cooked through.
- Add the soy, gochujang paste, tomato paste, and honey and mix well, heat for 2 minutes.
- Add the stir fry vegetables, cooked noodles, rice vinegar, pepper flakes, toss in the meat mixture, cover and cook for 5-8 minutes.
- Drizzle with sesame oil and serve!
- Feel free to finish if off with a bit more soy sauce and sriracha for extra salt/spice.
