1 cup 155g shelled edamame
1 cup 128g thinly sliced carrots
1 red bell pepper (119g, thinly sliced)
1/2 cup 80g snow or sugar snap peas, chopped in half
1/4 cup 15g chopped cilantro
1/4 cup 30g roasted salted cashews, (chopped, plus more for serving)
1 mango, (peeled and chopped into bite-size pieces)
1 lime, (sliced, for garnish)
1/2 cup 128g salted creamy cashew butter ((or substitute almond or peanut butter-if unsalted, add additional soy sauce))
2 Tbsp 30ml tamari or soy sauce, (plus more for dressing the noodles)
3/4 tsp chili garlic sauce
2 Tbsp 30ml maple syrup or agave nectar ((or substitute coconut sugar))
1/2 lime, (juiced (1 Tbsp or 15ml))
1 tsp fresh grated ginger
1 tsp toasted sesame oil, (plus more for dressing the noodles)
Hot water to thin

Steps:

  • Cook the soba noodles according to package instructions. Then drain, rinse with cool water, and set aside.
  • While the noodles are cooking, prepare the vegetables. To cook the edamame, microwave for 1 minute, covered. Or add to a saucepan over medium-low heat with 1-2 Tbsp (15-30ml) water, cover, and cook until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Set aside.
  • To prepare the dressing, combine all of the ingredients (except the water) and whisk. Then add enough hot water to thin into a pourable sauce (~2-3 Tbsp or 30-45ml). Taste and adjust the seasonings as desired.
  • To serve, add all of the salad ingredients to a large bowl and toss with 1 Tbsp (15ml) soy sauce and 1 tsp toasted sesame oil. Then add the desired amount of dressing and serve at room temperature or chilled. Serve with chili garlic sauce for added heat and a few more roasted cashews for garnish (optional).
  • Leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days, though best when fresh.
