INSTRUCTIONS
Instructions
Bring 2 medium pots of water to boil, one for the vegetables and one for the soba noodles.
In the first pot, place carrots, broccoli, and green beans to steam for 8-10 minutes. If you don’t have a steamer, then you can boil them.
Add the dry noodles to the second pot of boiling water, follow the package’s instructions.
Once the noodles are ready, rinse them in cold water. This helps rinse off the starches released while cooking and prevents the noodles from all sticking together.
Set aside the cooked veggies.
Heat a skillet over medium heat, pour 1 tablespoon of coconut oil and when it’s hot add the sliced onion for a few minutes. Add the drained soba noodles and veggies including that bell pepper. Give a stir and cook for a minute.
Transfer to a bowl and add a few spoonfuls of the sauce. Top with chopped cilantro / coriander and chili pepper flakes.
NOTES
Notes
Coco aminos is a great alternative to soy sauce. It uses significantly less sodium than soy sauce. If you don’t have coco aminos, substitute it with soy sauce. You'll just want to use less soy sauce than what is listed for coco aminos.
