That's true maddy, be interesting to see what people come up with. DH enjoyed it and I didn't think he would because there was no meat

Well I made an adaption of your noodle slice tonight Judy.
I am in desperate of a shopping trip, so I had to make do with what I had.
This recipe is a very adaptable one 

The ingredients I used were:

150g angel hair pasta,
140g roasted onion & chive vintage smoked cheddar
90g parmesan
170g zucchini
120g smoked ham.

Then stuck to the recipe with 5 eggs and s & p to taste.
Enjoyed by all, especially the kids 

Thanks Judy

Now that eggs are welcome back at my house I made this a couple of nights ago with some bacon added in.

It was yum.  I loved the noodles in with the egg.  My eldest two children didn't like the capsicum and peas, but I do have approval to make it next time with the bacon, some chicken and corn.

Thanks JD.

Glad you enjoyed it rubyslippers - life must be so much easier now if eggs are back on the menu. Variations are endless with this one.

Judy, you think you could do this recipe with rice noodles, but obviously adapt the recipe to reduce the cooking/ soaking time for the noodles. We cant eat wheat pasta, even though the photos look great!

[judydawn]

Any type of noodle would work Merlin, just cook or soak them as per packet instruction times.  I think thin ones preferably though.

Thanks Judy. This looks like something my kids would really enjoy, so I'll give give it a go and let yo know how I get on!
Cheers.
