Soak the glass noodles in warm water for 10-15 minutes, or according to package instructions, until soft. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the vegetables by julienning the carrot and zucchini, slicing the red bell pepper thinly, and cutting the shiitake mushrooms into slices. Set everything aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the tamari, sesame oil, and coconut sugar to make the sauce. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the carrot, zucchini, and red bell pepper to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms to the pan and continue stir-frying for another 2-3 minutes.
Toss in the baby spinach and green onions, stirring until the spinach wilts slightly.
Add the softened glass noodles to the pan and pour the prepared sauce over everything. Toss well to evenly coat the noodles and vegetables with the sauce.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the noodles are heated through and well incorporated with the vegetables.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy your gluten-free stir-fried vegetables with glass noodles!
