Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       06/28/2011   This is a FANTASTIC dish, I make it often. Healthy and cheap. I also make a whole broiler or roaster in the crock pot in lieu of a rotisserie chicken.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/12/2011   Does anyone have the nutrition information for this recipe?  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/04/2011   I made this for the 28 day challenge today to have for lunch this week. It's great although it needed more seasoning for my taste. I have a garlic pepper grinder at work and it was just what it needed.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       09/24/2010   We make this all the time, it is so healthy and delicious! I have used quinoa in place of the noodles, and once, in a pinch, I had to use lemon juice instead of lime. Definitely a different flavor, but still very good. And white wine vinegar makes a perfect stand in for rice vinegar.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/17/2010   I absolutely love this salad, but with a couple variations. Not wild about soba noodles so I use whole grain spaghetti, use all sesame oil instead of part vegetable, and double the dressing. Be sure not to overcook the noodles and the leftovers will be just as good the next day!  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/20/2009   I sub apple cider vinegar when I don't have rice wine vinegar.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/15/2009   This lo0ks delicious and healthy!! Great way to start scho0l.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/13/2009   Is there a good sub for rice vinegar?  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/07/2009   Munching on this right now and it's so delicious. Now I know it will be good for lunches. I only used 1/2 a package of soba noodles and have a large bowl. Use your other half on EDF's Soba Soup with Spinach.
