Authentic Pancit Recipe

When I was in high school my mom's good friend from work was a lovely Filipino woman named Tessie. On the first day of every month, my mom would bring me home a huge tupperware container of pancit from Tessie. In case you've never had it, it's like Filipino comfort food: rice noodles, soy sauce, chicken, shrimp, cabbage ... it's so good.

I COMPLETELY forgot about that food memory until I checked out Tastespotting this morning, which I haven't done for ages. There was a pancit recipe that looked good, but didn't look as great as I remember Tessie's being.

All morning I've been looking online for an authentic, tasty recipe similar to how I remember Tessie's. Does anyone have a recipe for pancit they'd care to share or can you refer me to somewhere online?

I've found a few recipes that call for Chinese sausage. That can't be authentic, can it?
