Another user, u/Afraid_Salamander_14 shared a link to recipes for college students on Budget bytes. I made the first recipe on the list but with leftover grilled pork chops I had in the freezer. Also subbed garlic scapes since I didn’t have green onions but had scapes in my garden

That pic makes me so damn hungry🥲 Great post.
I got the recipe on Budget Bytes but adjusted it to what I had on hand. Original used scrambled egg as the protein. I had grilled chops in the freezer and wasn’t sure what to do with them. This recipe seemed like a good match. I also quadrupled the recipe as it was for 4 of us.
1 box of noodles, lo mein or linguine ( I used linguine) boiled
4 T butter
1 T crushed red pepper
3 T brown sugar
4 T soy sauce
5 T sriracha
sliced grilled pork
chopped garlic scapes
Make a sauce of the soy sauce, sriracha, red pepper, and brown sugar. Set aside.
While noodles boil, melt butter in pan. Saute the grilled meat for a few minutes. Throw in the garlic scapes (scapes are a lot firmer than green onions so need to soften a little).
Add cooked noodles to pan with the meat and scapes. Pour the sauce over and mix to combine.
