Dear Lovers,
Did you know eating noodles keeps your body flexible?
Today we are going to make a healthy delicious dish . The soba noodle dish we are going to make soothes the soul.
Soba means buckwheat in Japan. The soba noodles look like spaghetti but have a nuttier flavor. A two ounce serving of dry soba noodles contain 6 o 8 grams of protein. Soba is full of minerals and a good source of B vitamins. In addition, The World's Healthiest Foods claims that a diet rich in buckwheat may reduce risk of high blood pressure, and also lowers blood cholesterol levels.
Enjoy this hearty meal!

6 ounces green peas
9 ounces soba noodles
