Breakfast Bowls
Breakfast bowls are a trendy new culinary concept. Not just breakfast bowls, but also things like smoothie bowls. Actually, I love eating any meal out of a bowl. And, my favorite dishes for setting the table are oversized bistro bowls sometimes also referred to as pasta bowls.
What are Udon Noodles
I'm sure you've tasted an udon noodle and they're the star in this udon noodle breakfast bowl! Yes, they are sooooooooooo good! And, the prepackaged ones are sooooooooooooo convenient! I mean, isn't that part of what we're looking for when cooking? Taking some shortcuts and having some conveniences that save time and don't keep us chained to the kitchen!
Udon noodles are made very much like pasta, wheat flour, water, and salt. These noodles are thicker and have a creamy white appearance. Texture wise, udon noodles are chewier and more substantial as a noodle, kind of like an Italian bucatini noodle. Personally, I love thick noodles!

I think there are several things that make this breakfast udon noodle bowl special.
- First of all, it's served in bowls. Usually with breakfast the only thing we use a bowl for is cereal or something like hot oatmeal or cream of wheat.
- Another thing, I'm asking you to warm that bowl. Now make sure you can put your bowl in the oven. It's on very low, of course, and I'm telling you it will make all the difference when you put everything in.
- Another special thing about this recipe is that you're going to basically use the same skillet to do the bacon then you're going to have the great seasonings and flavors in there to help make your noodles even tastier!
- I suppose the best thing about this recipe that makes it special is that you're usually not eating noodles for breakfast and veggies like the broccoli and red peppers.

And, you usually find it simply in noodle soup, maybe with a mild broth and topped with some fresh scallions or green onions. The broth flavor can differ, chicken, beef, but it's usually darkened because of the soy sauce used. The udon noodle can come dry or you can purchase it pre-cooked and ready to put in your recipe.
