Coconut Lime Udon

Why did I have a craving for Coconut Lime something? I don't know but, I do know that it led me to make a pretty great spur-of-the-moment dinner without any recipe to look at.  It could've been more lime-y but, unfortunately I didn't have a lime to zest. Regardless, it still was tasty.
