Happy weekend! I hope you are all enjoying what’s left of the mild spring days before summer arrives. This week’s meal plan features Crispy...
Peanut Soba Noodle Bowls- buckwheat noodles and crisp vegetables are tossed in a tangy peanut sauce for a light and satisfying meal that’s packed full of Thai-inspired flavor. (vegan with gluten-free option)
Have you ever had soba noodles?
I’m kind of embarrassed by this but I didn’t try them for the first time until a few weeks ago. With warm weather approaching I’ve been craving light and cool dishes and I had them on my recipe list so I figured I’d finally give them a go. Turns out I’m a fan. BIG LEAGUE. ;)
If you’re not familiar with soba noodles they’re almost like a thin Japanese version of spaghetti made from buckwheat flour. Buckwheat is not only high in fiber and antioxidants but it’s also a great source of protein. When served with crisp fresh vegetables and creamy peanut sauce, soba noodles make for a light meal that’s surprisingly satisfying.
