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, or Japanese buckwheat noodles, are one of my favorites!  Not only do they take less than 5-6 minutes to cook, but they are healthy and tasty too. Growing up, my dad owned a couple Japanese restaurants so we always had plenty of Japanese food around and I really developed a love for sushi, Zaru soba and beef and chicken teriyaki.

 

I made sure to introduce Asian (a lot of Korean and Japanese) food to my daughters at an early age and I’m so glad I did. They can both gobble soba noodles down like nobody’s business. And when it comes to non-spicy Asian food, they will pretty much eat anything I put in front of them. Now, I just need to get them to eat kimchi.

 

This dish is really so easy and quick to make. If you’ve never tried soba noodles, I hope you do soon! You won’t regret it.

 

Enjoy!
