I like health foods and health stores. They are just so much fun.
A couple of months ago, I tried soba noodles for the first time and this is the recipe I used.
I was seeing recipes pop up all the time in magazines and on the web, that used soba noodles, so I finally grabbed some.
This recipe also includes edamame, which is one of my favorite foods.
This was a great dish, that we all enjoyed, but I thought that the hoisin sauce flavor was a little too strong. If you love hoisin sauce, than that won't be a problem, but if I were going to make it again, I would cut back on that a little bit.
I also reduced the amount of oil that the veggies were stir-fried in, because I think a little oil goes a long way.
This was ready really quickly and had lots of green veggies, so it was good, quick dinner.
