Chef Tip: Give this recipe an Indian-inspired refresh with a few simple changes. Gather four jars and to each, add 1 tablespoon chili sauce, 1 tablespoon curry powder and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Layer each with cilantro, green onions, mushrooms, 4 ounces rice noodles and 4 ounces peeled, deveined and cooked shrimp. To serve, add 1/4 can Schnucks coconut milk and boiling water to cover each. Stir and let stand for 3 minutes.
