This simple side dish highlights two fad-free nutrition concepts: The buckwheat adds whole-grain nutrients to your meal with its bountiful fiber and phytonutrients, while a prudent amount of spicy infused oil keeps added fat (and calories) at a minimum. Neutral-flavored canola oil smoothes out nutty sesame oil; both plant-based oils have healthful unsaturated fats. Use leftover oil in stir-fries or as part of an Asian-inspired salad dressing. Ingredients:
1 (8-ounce) package soba (buckwheat noodles) |
2 1/2 tablespoons orange and pepper–infused oil |
1 cup thinly sliced green onions |
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro |
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce |
1 tablespoon rice vinegar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cook noodles according to package directions, omitting salt and fat; drain. Rinse under cold water; drain. 2. Combine Orange and Pepper–Infused Oil and noodles in a large bowl. Add onions and remaining ingredients to noodle mixture; toss gently to combine. |
