Recipe: Udon Noodles And Raw Veggies

Most evenings when I come home from work I want something light to eat with lots of nutrients. Most importantly, I want something that’s quick and easy so I can make the most of my evening. I have always been a fan of noodle-based food like soba, rice, and udon, and believe they are a great and easy way to make a filling but healthy meal with a lot of vegetables. This recipe uses raw vegetables and a dressing that gives it that finished taste. It leaves you feeling comfortably full and satisfied.

Here’s how to make udon noodle and raw vegetables.

Serves six

8 ounces udon noodles

¼ head of red cabbage, thinly sliced

2 whole carrots, shredded

2 cups shelled edamame, steamed

Those are flat noodles, not udon noodles. Even dried ones are round.

this looks delicous but half a cup of low sodium soy sauce is definitely not healthy

half a cup of LOW sodium soy sauce is nothing compared to all the salt/sodium that goes into the other foods you eat/cook everyday…
