Ingredients
- 8 oz. soba noodles
- 4 cups broccoli
- 2 cups green beans
- Dry roasted peanuts for garnish (optional)
Peanut Sauce:
- 1/2 cup natural creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup reduced sodium tamari or reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 3 tbsp rice vinegar
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup (or honey if not vegan)
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 3 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic chili paste or red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the peanut sauce. In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, whisk together the ingredients until well blended. Set aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook soba noodles according to package instructions (usually about 5 minutes). Careful, they don’t take that long to cook. During the last 2 minutes of cooking the soba noodles, you can throw in the broccoli and green beans to lightly cook. OR you can bring another pot of water to a boil and lightly cook the veggies in there. Drain noodles and veggies and return them to the pot. Add in the peanut sauce and toss until well combined.
- Serve and garnish with peanuts, red pepper flakes, and/or a squeeze of lime.
- Enjoy!
