Description

Prep a week's worth of this quick and easy cold soba salad, a delicious medley of noodles, edamame, and more vegetables dressed in a Thai peanut sauce.

Ingredients

1 (14 ounce) package dried soba noodles
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
5 (3-cup) storage containers
1 cup shelled edamame
1 large carrot, shredded
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1 1/4 cups Thai peanut sauce
5 (2-ounce) dressing containers

Directions

1 Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Drop in soba noodles and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 7 minutes. Drain.
2 Toss noodles with sesame oil in a medium bowl. Divide noodles evenly between the 5 containers.
3 Top noodles with edamame, carrot, green onions, and cilantro, dividing them evenly between the 5 containers. Place lids on containers. Pour 1/4 cup peanut sauce into each dressing container. Refrigerate until ready to eat. Mix 1 dressing container with 1 serving of soba salad to serve.
