I LOVE a good plate of soba noodles! If you have never heard of Soba noodles, they derive from Japanese cuisine. Soba are buckwheat noodles and a Japanese staple that can be served both hot or cold. I love to add a bunch of veggies with mine, it's a perfect light spring entree that will hit the spot, and provide lots of nutrition as well. TRY THIS RECIPE OUT!
