This is clean eating at it’s finest, and my first foray into buckwheat soba. A pretty purple-brown and earthy tasting, buckwheat soba noodles are a fun and healthy addition to dinner. I added in some good for you avocado and edamame and topped it all off with a little sesame dressing for a summer time dish. I’m waiting for some cooler days to try this with broth. It was light and satisfying, even a little cooling, the perfect thing for these hot days, well it’s hot where we live at least!
