This was a great recipe. I added 3 tblspns of Oyster sauce for more flavor. Even my picky mom liked it!!! That says something. Will do this again.

I had no idea what pancit was. I've never seen it on a restaurant menu so I wanted to try it. From the recipe, I could tell it would be Asian and healthy which is always a plus for dinner plans. We had it for dinner tonight & it was very good in spite of, or perhaps because of, the simple ingredients. What a fresh tasting, satisfying meal! The only thing I will do differently next time is soak the rice noodles a bit longer. They had a tendency to stick together... Other than the aforementioned kitchen malfunction on my part, this is excellent & I'll make it again. Thanks for the great dinner idea!

In our house, we use chicken broth to add some more flavor for the noodles. Also some shrimp and other veggies (red bell pepper, celery, etc.) may make an appearance, depending on what's in the refrigerator.

This was just OK. We were not a huge fan, and I would not make again. When I told my Filipina friend I had attempted to make pancit, and showed her this recipe, she laughed. Her family recipe that I had previously fallen in love with includes shrimp, pork shoulder, green beans, shiitake mushrooms, patis (Filipino fish sauce), and Chinese wheat noodles, so there are many differences. While this was meant to be a 'quick and easy' version, the next time I want pancit I will just call her.

I happened to have all the ingredients on hand at the right moment. Leftover roasted chicken, half a head of cabbage, etc. This was an easy and flavorful way to use up the leftovers I had hanging around. I used Ponzu sauce instead of the soy sauce and added a dash of Asian seasoning. While it tasted fine, I thought the dish was a little colorless in appearance since all of the ingredients are so pale. Next time around I would use a red onion, red cabbage, and maybe add a red or yellow sweet bell pepper and some kale or other greens for some more color. That said, it was tasty, I used my leftovers creatively and that was my intent when I choose this recipe. Maybe Napa cabbage would provide more color. It makes A LOT! So now I have a large bowl of leftover Pancit. (Wish I had read the reviews that said to break the noodles in half first! Anyway, I may take the leftover tomorrow for a church potluck lunch. :)

I had only tried this once before and was excited to try it. My only criticism is that although it tasted good, it was very bland. Is there anything I can add, staying within the tradition, that would enhance the flavours?

Warning, USE the proper Pancit noodles, we did not and it ruined the meal. Now everything else was amazing!

This was a wonderful and easy recipe that turned out a pancit that tastes just like my mom used to make! My shortcut suggestion would be if you are in a rush, you can use the pre-mixed bag of cole slaw without the dressing.
