How to Make: "Vietnamese Vermicelli Noodle Bowl"

So today I wanted to make something on the healthier side of things. I'm usually a big fan of Pho (Vietnamese Noodle Soup) but sometimes I like to get the Vermicelli Noodle Bowl...its served cold and very refreshing and not so heavy like most noodle dishes.

When I was making the video you could definitely tell I was in a early 2000's kind of mood with a little Electro music feel. Probably because I had just got done playing Basketball and I was very tired so I needed some music to get me pumped up.

Anyways, Vermicelli Noodles are a rice noodle and this dish is served mostly cold-ish. It has a very fresh feel to it and is a good dish to take to work with you. Less then $20 for all the ingredients.

Watch and Enjoy!
