Egg Roll Noodle Bowl

I showed this recipe to D and he said yes.  It looked pretty easy to make (I would have bought shredded coleslaw mix to make it easier but he used the food processor).  The portions were huge!  It needed a little bit of soy sauce and chile garlic sauce, but doesn't everything?  Would have again
