Noodle bowls

with chicken or tofu

I was craving some meat but also something light and healthy. This recipe doesn’t have to be made with meat and you could use tofu or tempeh instead. It was an easy meal to put together for 6 adults and 3 kids and required very little time. The noodles I used are bean ones but any noodles could be used. We are lucky enough to have an old lime tree on the property we live on that produces the juiciest limes that are more yellow than green when ripe.

I have a great mandolin peeler from Japan, but you can often find cheap ones at Asian supermarkets.

A visit to the garden for some mint. I can’t wait to get in the garden again now it isn’t so wet!

We get our meat from Locavore in Byron. They can deliver it frozen and that way we can eat good meat more often. I buy a box of different cuts and kinds of meat so we have a variety.
