This easy and healthy recipe only takes 10 minutes or less to make. The creamy peanut free sauce tossed with the nutty and healthy Soba noodles make it the perfect ingredients to pair. Japanese Soba noodles which are made from buckwheat flour and wheat flour and have a slightly nutty, earthy taste. I love to use Soba noodles as they are so much more healthy than your average noodle. Soba is the Japanese name for buckwheat these noodles are higher in protein and fiber than many other noodles making them a much healthier option.
