Kind of a redundant recipe title, udon is a noodle....

1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
2 14 1/2-oz. cans beef broth
3 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce (Note: the liquid reduces so you really don't want the full-strength salt kind)
3 Tbsp sake or dry sherry
1 Tbsp honey
Cooking spray
2 c sliced shiitake mushroom caps (about 4 oz.)
1/2 c thinly sliced carrot
8 oz. top round, thinly sliced
2/4 c diagonally sliced green onions
1 6-oz. bag prewashed baby spinach
