Game Plan:

1. While the water for the noodles comes to a boil, cut the fruit for the side salad.

2. While noodles stand:

• Finish fruit salad
• Cut beef and vegetables for Asian salad
• Measure sauce ingredients for Asian salad

3. While beef mixture heats in microwave, tear spinach and chop cilantro.

Quick Tips:

Bottled fresh ground ginger is a speedy way to invigorate this salad; look for it in the produce sections of larger supermarkets. You may also substitute an equal amount of grated fresh ginger.

Fresh fruit salad: Combine 1 mango, cut into 1/2-inch cubes; 1 Granny Smith apple, cut into 1/2-inch cubes; 1 sliced banana; and 1 cup seedless grapes. Combine 2 tablespoons lime juice, 2 tablespoons honey, and 2 teaspoons chopped fresh mint; drizzle over fruit. Cover and chill.
