Ok, yes I know Thanksgiving is tomorrow, and this isn’t exactly Thanksgiving food, but you know I’ve been experimenting around with Thanksgiving food for a couple weeks now, and I needed some of my more typical flavors. This about the only negative of blogging. Sometimes, you get tired of holiday food before the holiday gets here. But, something fresh and delicious like this usually sets me back on the right path, so I can think about whatever is seasonal again. Anyway, I thought that after tomorrow, you might be ready for something different too before you start into the Christmas fare. This soba noodle salad was just perfect. It has soba noodles, vegetables, and a peanut dressing that is just wonderful.
