GREEN TEA SOBA NOODLES WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES AND HERBS [VEGAN]

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE ROASTED VEGETABLES:

• 1 sweet potato
• 2 large beets
• 4 large mushrooms
• 4 garlic cloves
• 1 onion
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1/2 teaspoon each of salt, pepper, fennel seeds, dill, paprika, turmeric, garlic powder, and rosemary if you have it
• 1 teaspoon maple syrup

FOR THE NOODLES:

• 1/2 package green tea noodles
• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)

FOR THE TOPPINGS:

• 1/2 cucumber
• 1 cup cilantro
• 1/4 cup peanuts
• 1/4 cup raisins

PREPARATION

1. Prepare your plants: pre-heat the oven to 350°F. Peel and slice all the veggies so they are all roughly the same size. Mix in the oil, herbs/spices and maple syrup until everybody is evenly coated. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the beets and sweet potatoes are soft.
2. While they are baking, make the noodles: follow the instructions on the package. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop them from cooking anymore. Then add a teaspoon of vegetable oil and a 1/2 teaspoon of salt, if you like.
3. Cut up the cucumber and cilantro for the toppings. When the vegetables are ready: put your noodles in two bowls, place the roasted veggies on top, followed by the cucumber, cilantro, raisins, peanuts, and whatever else you think to add.
