This recipe starts with soba noodles, which are thin brown noodles traditionally made with buckwheat or a blend of buckwheat and wheat flours. 

Roland® Organic Soba Noodles are my go-to organic soba noodles, sourced from Taiwan. To prepare your noodles,  add them to unsalted boiling water for 3 minutes or until just cooked. Drain and rinse with cold water before serving.

You can top your salad with any of your favorite veggies, but I love this combo of red bell pepper, edamame, carrots red cabbage, green onion, and cilantro.

I topped mine with Recipe 33 almonds with a smoky serrano flavor for a little kick. These almonds are made with real ingredients and comes in other great flavors like garlic dill, lemon rosemary, truffle, and cinnamon vanilla. I like these for an on-the-go snack, but the smoky serrano and truffle are fantastic for garnishing this dish.

Next up is the dressing, and I’m obsessed with this recipe that’s made using almond butter, lime juice, sesame oil, white rice vinegar, minced ginger, and soy sauce. Soo light and refreshing!

Not only is this dish healthy and delicious, but it was also a big hit with the family! We gobbled it right up for lunch.
