Step 1
Soak the 8 oz rice noodles in hot water until pliable, about 10 minutes; drain and set aside.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the 0.5 lb beef and 0.5 lb tofu; stir-fry until beef is browned and tofu is golden, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Add the drained noodles and 3 tbsp soy sauce; toss everything together for 2-3 minutes until noodles are heated through and evenly coated.
Step 4
Add the 2 cups bean sprouts and half of the 3 sliced green onions; stir-fry for 1 minute until sprouts are just tender-crisp.
Step 5
Serve hot, topped with remaining green onions, 0.25 cup crushed peanuts, and a squeeze of lemon from the wedges.
Step 6
Optional: add a pinch of chili flakes or a dash of sesame oil for extra flavor.
