Everyone could use to eat more vegetables, and I'm going to share a recipe that includes a ton of different veggies and tastes delicious. It's based off a Guy Fieri recipe called "Dang Cold Asian Noodle Salad" and can be found here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/
My recipe is a little different from his, and is as follows:
Ingredients
- 1 lb linguine
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon hot chili oil
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 carrots, julienned
- 5 green onions, bottom 4 inches, thinly sliced
- 1/2 purple cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced or julienned
- 1 julienned cucumber
- 3 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted, for garnish
Directions
In a medium stock pot, boil water, add salt and cook the linguine al dente.
In a big bowl, combine all the vegetables. Add the hot cooked noodles to the veggies to slightly cook them.
In a medium bowl combine, sesame oil, vinegar, soy sauce, hot chili oil, hoisin and extra-virgin olive oil. Mix thoroughly and then pour on top of the veggie/noodle mixture.
Garnish with sesame seeds, and toss.
Notes: This recipe is soooo good and you can eat it either hot or cold. The sauce has great flavor and the crunchiness of the veggies is very refreshing. Enjoy!
