Yield:
4 Servings
Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
2 oz Dry cellophane or bean
Thread noodles
2 cup Peeled, seeded, and sliced
Cucumbers
2 cup Thinly sliced red bell
Peppers (I chopped them into Chunks )
1 cup No-oil Italian dressing or
Vinaigrette (I used less Than 1C - about 3/4)
1 tbl Freshly minced basil
1 tbl Freshly miced cilantro
1/8 tsp Red hot chili flakes (I made My own from dried chilis)
Instructions:
Instructions: Drop the noodles into boiling water until done (length of time depends on type; read the label). Drain. Toss all ingredients together and marinate for at least 1 hour. Serve on a bed of lettuce.

Other tips:
I used 3.5 oz of noodles, and less dressing. The chili makes it hot so if you dont like spicy, it would be fine to leave it out. You may want to break the noodles a little before cooking (but not too much). I made the mistake of not breaking them and ended up having to cut them a little in order to get my ingredients to combine properly.

This salad is even better the next day. I imagine it travels nicely because it isnt too soupy.
