We often had plain rice noodles (猪肠粉) for breakfast when the girls were going to school. Simply pan fry and drizzle with soy sauce, sesame oil, and sesame seeds for a quick and easy fix. I have since turned this to a lunch dish by adding stir fried chicken, shrimp, and vegetables as topping. Another one-wok meal!
