I absolutely love this salmon soba bowl! It's quick, healthy and delicious.
I'm such a fan of soba noodles – high in protein and fibre, they keep you full and help with digestion. Combined with the good fats in salmon, avocado and tahini – this bowl will leave you glowing!
Handy tip: the different components can be pre-prepared and stored separately so you can whip the bowls up in 5 minutes – great meal prep idea!
The recipe serves 4 and you can increase/decrease ingredients as desired (keep in mind your FODMAP limits – broccoli has fructose, avocado has sorbitol, tahini has GOS). Use gluten free soba noodles + soy sauce to make the recipe gluten free, use tofu instead of salmon to make it vegan.
Side note: this is one of my favourite dressings and I use it on lots of things!
Hope you love it as much as I do! Tag @fodbods if you make it :)
