Buckwheat Soba noodle salad with chicken



This salad was inspired by an amazing recipe developed by my client, Alison. Her recipe can be found here: http://anappleadaynutrition.com.au/2011/03/miracle-salad/, along with many other tasty, nutritious and exciting recipes. I didn't have all of the ingredients handy, so i made a sort-of make-shift version. Not quite as good as the original, but tasty none the less!


Ingredients:
1 packet buckwheat soba noodles (cook as per instructions on packet)
1/2 wombok (Asian cabbage), shredded
2 carrots, cut into sticks
1/2 cup green beans
1 raw zucchini, cut into sticks
350g firm tofu, cut into sticks
200g grilled or poached chicken breast, chopped
1/4 cup chopped nuts to garnish (i used walnuts and almonds)


Dressing:
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon raw sugar
juice of half a lime


Mix dressing until sugar dissolves and poor over salad ingredients. Toss well and serve!
