So, after all the rich foods, chocolate and sweet treats you may have devoured last week (I certainly did), something lighter and more on the healthier side might be appealing to you right now. Out of all the different kinds of foods out there, I really feel like Japanese food is one of the healthiest. I mean, we’re talking fish, buckwheat noodles, marinated vegetables, sushi, chicken teriyaki. . what could be better?
Soba Noodles with Edamame and Green Onions
Ingredients
- 4 ounces soba noodles Japanese buckwheat noodles
- 1 cup frozen shelled edamame green soybeans
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup chopped green onion
- Sesame seeds to sprinkle on top
- For a spicy alternative mix in: 1 1/2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce or sriracha sauce
Instructions
- Cook soba noodles according to package directions, add the edamame for last 3 minutes. Rinse with warm water; drain well and set aside.
- Combine 2 tablespoons soy sauce, lime juice, and sesame oil in a medium bowl. Whisk well.
- Pour the soy sauce mixture over the soba noodles and mix in the cilantro and chopped green onion. I prefer using disposable plastic gloves so I can mix with my hands. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with more green onion (if preferred) and serve!
