Рецепт Sweet Sesame Noodles with Tofu and Broccoli
Sweet Sesame Noodles with Tofu and Broccoli
Noodles just got a makeover! Crispy tofu, buckwheat soba noodles, scallions, sesame seeds, and broccoli tossed in a spicy peanut sauce makes this dish super tasty but also very light.
Peanut noodles, or most Asian noodle dishes, aren’t usually the healthiest (tons of fat and refined carbs from the peanuts, sauce, and noodles), so I had to make a few modifications to keep all of the flavor of the original recipe but make it much more guilt-free. I was inspired by this recipe from CookingLight, but obviously changed out the chicken for tofu to make it lighter and veggie friendly.
This recipe has tons of texture, big bold flavors, and is kid-friendly too! Layla loved it, and so did the husband
I was happy to finally have found a noodle recipe I can get behind. Whole grains from the buckwheat noodles, lean protein from the tofu, healthy fats from the sauce, and green veggies make this a winning dish.
