Boil 2 bunches of noodles in boiling water in a big pot for about 3 minutes. When the noodles are soft, fish them out with tongs and put in a large bowl. Reserve the hot water.

In the boiling water, add spinach and stir it gently for 1 minute. Then take it out and rinse it in cold water 3 times. Remove any grit or dead leaves thoroughly while rinsing. Squeeze it gently to get the water out, then cut it into 2-inch pieces and place in the bowl.
Add Add-In #2 and mix it and place it into the large bowl with the spinach.
Heat a few drops of olive oil in a large pan over high heat. Stir fry the carrots for 30 seconds, then set aside into the bowl.

Add a few more drops of oil and stir fry the white mushrooms. Cook to desired doneness and set aside into bowl.
