How To Make Low Acid Vegetable Stir Fry Noodles:

Cook the Noodles:
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook noodles according to package directions until tender. Drain and set aside.

Sauté the Vegetables:
In a large skillet or wok, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chives and a pinch of asafoetida. Stir for 30 seconds to release aroma.

Add Veggies:
Add broccoli, carrots, zucchini (or snap peas), edamame, and vegetable broth. Cover halfway and cook 5–7 minutes until vegetables are soft.

Add Sauce and Noodles:
Stir in coconut aminos, tahini, and sesame oil (if using). Add cooked noodles and toss gently. Simmer 3–5 minutes so flavors absorb.

Serve and Garnish:
Top with chopped parsley for freshness. Serve warm and enjoy a stomach-soothing, reflux-friendly meal.
