Step 1

Prepare your Asian Buddha bowl by bringing a pot of water to boil and adding soba noodles and cook for about 5 minutes or as per package instructions.

Step 2

Once cooked, drain and rinse the noodles in cold water. Set them aside.

Step 3

To prepare the tofu, cut in cubes then heat a bit of oil in a pan over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the cubed tofu to the pan and cook until golden brown, flipping frequently for about 4-5 minutes.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, maple syrup or agave nectar, and vinegar to make a quick sauce.

Step 6

Turn the heat to low and pour the sauce over the tofu and toss frequently for an additional minute, allowing the sauce to coat the tofu.

Step 7

Now use a dressing that you like or make my Almond Butter dressing recipe using almond butter, vinegar, maple syrup (or agave nectar), soy sauce, garlic powder and ground ginger.

Step 8

Taste the peanut sauce and adjust the amount of soy sauce or sweetener according to your preference. Add small splashes of water to thin out the sauce to your liking.

Step 9

Now to assemble our bowl, place the cooked soba noodles first. Add some peanut sauce to the noodles.

Step 10

Add sliced bell pepper, cucumber, red cabbage, carrot, edamame beans, and cashews. Lastly, add the cooked tofu.

Step 11

Drizzle the desired amount of dressing over the prepared Asian Buddha bowl.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro (optional) and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
