ORIENTAL COLD NOODLE SALAD (LOW FAT/VEGETARIAN)
Soba noodles are easily found in the Asian section of your grocery store, you could substitute 1 pound of angel hair pasta for the soba noodles but the soba noodles are better to use ;-) Plan ahead this needs to chill for a minimum of 2 or more hours before serving, prep time includes chilling time. Add in some frozen thawed peas, steamed broccoli, or some cooked chicken or shrimp if desired.
