Foodtrients - giveaway
Eating a certain diet rich with nutrients to stay looking and feeling young? That's the premise behind Foodtrients: Age-Defying Recipes for a Sustainable Life
. The pages are filled with antioxidant and other super power filled foods. Will it work? Your guess is as good as mine, are there some tasty recipes? Absolutely! I admit I wouldn't make everything from this book, chicken livers anyone... But there were also some keepers for sure. Like this green tea noodle dish!
It was a hit for dinner, although I'll probably use a little less ginger next time, I felt like it dominated things a little too much. Otherwise I loved this dish warm for dinner, and then cold the next day for lunch! (I made a double batch so we'd have leftovers, that plus we tend to eat more than a typical serving size... just saying)
2 cups brewed green tea
1 recipe ginger dressing (see below)
3 oz soba noodles (they also suggest using udon which I used)
2 Tbs chopped scallions
1/2 cup shelled cooked edamame
sesame seeds for garnish
Boil tea and use to cook noodles (the noodles only take 4 minutes), drain and set aside. Toss with dressing, scallions and edamame, serve with sesame seeds.
For sauce mix together: 1 Tbs grated fresh ginger, 1 Tbs soy sauce, 1 Tbs rice wine vinegar, 1 Tbs sesame oil.
Now for the giveaway! The winner will receive a copy of Foodtrients
along with an apron!
