Todd’s “Japanese Style” Ginger-Miso, Vegetable Soba Noodle Bowl with Coconut Milk
I got the inspiration for dish while visiting a local ramen place. I wandered into trader joe’s, and kept getting inspiration. I knew about their ginger-miso broth, and knew they always carry bags of vegetables you can stir fry. This recipe serves 4 people. Serving size is about 1 1/2 cups. Calories: 230.
