A quick, light meal with anti-inflammatory properties. Curry scrambled tofu combined with the chewy texture of the soba and the meaty earthiness of shiitake mushrooms makes for a complete-protein meal containing all essential amino acids.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the soba noodles and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm, about 6 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain. Rinse the noodles under cold water, drain and transfer to a large bowl.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the tahini, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, the rice vinegar, honey, chili crisp and reserved cooking water; whisk to combine. Add to the soba noodles and toss until evenly coated; set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shiitakes and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove to a small bowl.
  4. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons avocado oil to the skillet. Add the turmeric and cook, stirring it into the oil, 30 seconds. Add the tofu and cook, stirring, until evenly colored, about 4 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce and the cooked mushrooms, stirring to combine. Remove from the heat.
  5. Divide the noodles among shallow bowls. Top with the shiitake- tofu scramble and serve with lime wedges.
