Spicy Tahini and Avocado Soba image

Soba + tahini + avocado? Enough said. This full- meal noodle salad is one of my favorite ways to fill up on good carbs, healthy fats, and plenty of nutrient-rich greens.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Tahini-Miso Dressing:
1/4 cup tahini paste
3 1/2 tablespoons organic red miso paste
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 to 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (depending on how hot you like it)
Noodle salad:
1 (8- to 9.5-ounce) pack dried soba noodles
1 cup thin jicama matchsticks
2 cups baby spinach
1 avocado, pitted, peeled, and sliced
2 tablespoons gomashio, plus more as needed

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, cook the soba noodles in boiling water, as directed on your package.
  • Make the dressing: Put the tahini paste, miso paste, rice vinegar, and sriracha in a large bowl. Whisk well.
  • Drain the cooked noodles and rinse under cold running water; set aside in the colander. (Quick tip: To keep your noodles from clumping together, rub the noodles together when rinsing under cold running water to wash away excess starch. This will also make sure your noodles maintain a perfect texture.)
  • Add your drained and cooled soba noodles to the dressing bowl and toss.
  • Add the jicama and baby spinach; mix well. Top off the soba noodles with avocado slices and gomashio.
  • To serve, twirl the noodles using tongs and place in individual serving bowls.
