Mmm. I made this last night! Sadly, my neighborhood grocery didn’t have Soba noodles, so I substituted with Whole Wheat linguine and it was DELICIOUS. This recipe is most definitely a keeper!
I’m so glad you liked it! I’m actually making it again tonight… it’s too hot to eat anything else!
Mark requested I make this again tonight! Huge hit in our house!
