When you feel like preparing a light meal for dinner this is just the right one to serve. Will do good for breakfast or a Sunday brunch too! The green chilli spice that cuts through the bland strands of vermicelli is a tasty blend for a light and happy meal. You may add more veggies to the vermicelli and consider reducing the spice when serving this for kids.
