Soba Noodle Salad

I'm sick of seeing soba recipes and not getting in on the action.



A little bit of lazy...



And a little bit of luscious.

= Yum. :)

Bento Noodle Salad:

4 oz soba noodles, boiled (4-6 minutes) and chilled
2 cup coleslaw mix
1 stalk celery, julienned
1/3 red bell pepper, julienned

Dressing:
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp mirin
1 tsp honey

1 tbsp sesame seeds

Mix chilled noodles, coleslaw mix, celery, and bell pepper in large bowl. Mix dressing ingredients together; pour over salad. Mix well. Serve and sprinkle with sesame seeds!

Also made another bento today:


Top container: banana slices and chocolate chip cookies for dessert
Bottom tier: soba noodle salad with soy sauce penguin
Top tier: almonds, cheese star, sourdough bread, spinach

It was yummy!
