3 oz. lean beef (use tofu, seitan, or another protein for a vegetarian option)
1 cup soba noodles
½ cup bok choy
1½ cup vegetables - daikon, red bell pepper, carrots, white mushrooms
1 Tbsp. sesame seeds and/or pistachios
Cooking oil
Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Sauce
2 Tbsp peanut butter or nut butter of choice
1 Tbsp water (to thin - more if desired)
¾ Tbsp soy sauce (can use coconut aminos or tamari as soy-substitutes)
¾ Tbsp lime juice
½ Tbsp honey
Cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
Cook beef (or protein of choice) on the stovetop with cooking oil over medium heat until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (steaks) or 160 degrees F (ground beef).
While protein is cooking, prepare noodles according to package directions.
Rinse and chop the bok choy and vegetables.
Place a Tbsp. of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the vegetables for approximately 5 minutes. Then add bok choy and cook until wilted or desired consistency.
While vegetables are cooking, combine ingredients for the sauce in a bowl and set aside.
Chop fresh cilantro.
Once you have prepared everything, combine noodles, beef, and vegetables into a bowl. Drizzle desired amount of sauce over your dish and garnish with sesame seeds, pistachios, and cilantro.
Chef's Note
Make substitutes based on your GenoPalate Report! Try using a different grain instead of noodles or subbing in various vegetables.
