Soba Noodle Recipe

My dad found this recipe online and because it looked delicious, we both tackled the recipe for dinner one night, with me cooking the soba (buckwheat) noodles and making the sauce, while my dad cut up all the vegetables and prepped all the other ingredients. After putting all the ingredients together and mixing the noodles in the sauce, we sampled our finished product. To my amazement, it was delicious! I had about 2-3 bowls of it for dinner, and because I was so obsessed with this recipe, I thought I would share it so you could make it as well.

Ingredients:
1. 1/4 cup and 2 tbsp rice vinegar
2. 1 tsp white sugar
3. 2 tbsp minced ginger
4. 1 tbsp honey
5. 2 tbsp tamari
6. 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
7. 1/4 cup canola oil
8. 12 ounces buckwheat noodles
9. 1 carrot, grated
10. 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
11. 1/4 english cucumber, grated
12. 3 green onions, thinly sliced
13. 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
14. 2 tsp Sriracha

Procedure:
1. Whisk the vinegar, sugar, ginger, honey, tamari, sesame oil, and sriracha together in a large bowl.
2. After those ingredients in step 1 are mixed together, slowly stir in the canola oil and continue stirring until the oil is mixed in with the rest of the dressing.
3. Cook your buckwheat noodles according to the cooking directions on the package. After the noodles are done cooking, pour them into a strainer, rinse them with cold water, then drain the water so only the noodles are left.
4. While the noodles are cooking, grate your carrot and cucumber. Thinly slice your red bell pepper and green onions, and chop up the cilantro.
5. Pour your noodles into the large bowl with the sauce, add the carrot, cucumber, green onions, red bell pepper, and cilantro, and mix everything together until the sauce has coated all the noodles and everything is mixed evenly.
6. Add more sriracha if you desire a spicier effect, then put some of the finished product into a bowl or plate, and enjoy!

Book Recommendations

I am a huge book worm and try to read whenever I have time, which is usually late at night before I go to bed, on weekends, or on breaks. I recently found that I was short on books to read, which led me to research on Google novels that would appeal to me. Because I am a sucker for romance movies, I mainly looked for that genre of novels. I recently got a few novels in the mail along with a few that a friend let me borrow, and I want to share them with you. 1. The Fault In Our Stars by John Green - I have read this book around three or four times, and it is still my favorite novel. It is a story about two teenagers who do have cancer, but it focuses more on the blossoming love story between them and how their world changes because of that as they also go through ups and downs due to their illnesses. It is a great read anywhere and anytime, and will always make you tear up by the end. 2. Let It Snow - This novel consists of three holiday stories written by John Green, Maure...

Dairy-free Banana Bread

From the end of 2019 to now, I have been really into baking breads. Out of the ones I have made, making banana bread and pumpkin walnut bread have been my top favorites. One of the first banana breads that I made was utterly delicious! However, because I like to share my baked goods with others, particularly my boyfriend, I went on the hunt for a dairy free recipe. My boyfriend is lactose intolerant, and I wanted to bake something that both he and I could enjoy. So, upon coming upon this recipe during my search online, I made a loaf last night and it was so delicious I had to share it on the blog. Here is the recipe!
