Soba Noodle Salad with Sesame Almond Butter Sauce
Author: Katie Stewart || TheVibrantHeart.com
For the salad:
- 1 package of Soba buckwheat noodles you can find them at natural food stores, or sometimes in the international food section of your grocery store
- 1 zucchini julienned
- 2 carrots julienned
- 3 green onions finely diced
- 2 tbsp. nutritional yeast
- 2 tbsp. sesame seeds
- Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
For the Sauce:
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 3 tbsp. sesame oil
- 3 tbsp. filtered water
- 1 tbsp. lemon juice
- 1 tbsp. raw honey
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tsp. ginger freshly grated
- Pink rock or grey sea salt to taste I used Herbamare seasoning salt
Cook the Soba noodles as directed. Add a little bit of oil to the water and stir constantly while the noodles boil to prevent them from sticking to each other.
Add cooked noodles, zucchini, carrots, green onions, nutritional yeast, and sesame seeds to a large salad bowl and drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Add all ingredients for the sauce together in a bowl and whisk until combined.
Drizzle sauce over the salad and mix.
If you find the sauce too thick, add a touch more water. If you find it too thin add more almond butter.
