Spicy Shrimp and Noodles

By pearlita

I absolutely LOVE this recipe!! When I first got married, the best investment I made was sending away for 6 teeny little coil-bound Campbell's Soup cookbooks. Nowadays, I don't use them much anymore, but this is one recipe that's still a favourite. You won't believe how tasty and quick this is!!

Ingredients

• 2 cups water
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
