Monday Munchies: Asian Soba Noodle Salad


Make this for dinner tonight… fresh, healthy and full of flavor. It is so pretty and colorful! I just love it.

Ingredients:
(large batch...cut in half if you aren't feeding a crowd)
  • 12oz package of soba noodles, cooked according to directions
  • 1 cup cooked, shelled edamame
  • 1 bag of broccoli slaw mix (or any coleslaw mix with cabbage, broccoli, or carrots)
  • Additional Veggies: I used red pepper, pea pods, yellow squash, green onion, and cilantro (those last two are especially important for flavor!). Any vegetables would work in this salad...try for as many colors as possible. 
Peanut Dressing: 
  • 6 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 4 table spoons creamy peanut butter
  • 4 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce 
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced


Instructions: Whisk all the dressing ingredients in a bowl. In a large bowl, combine all your vegetables, slaw, and cooked soba noodles. Toss with the dressing and serve. Enjoy and stay cool!
