Soba Noodles, Chicken, and Veggies with Caramelized Garlic Sauce

Warning: must love garlic.

This dish serves 1, but can easily be modified to serve more.

Some Soba noodles are gluten-free (check package). They are made from buckwheat and metabolize much more slowly than most carbohydrates, which makes them ideal for diabetics and health-conscious individuals. You can pick them up at your local japanese market or health food store.

If you don't have any chicken leftovers on hand, Marinate chicken breast tenderloins or sliced breasts in some sesame oil, chopped up garlic, sake or rice vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper for 4-24 hours. Cook in nonstick skillet.. adding a bit of soy sauce and sake/wine halfway through the cooking.

This sauce can be used on any noodles with just about any vegetables you like. Enjoy :)Submitted by: VALKYRIA-

Baked Chicken Egg Rolls

One of my biggest fast-food temptations are greasy fried egg rolls from places like Panda Express. I made over this healthy version using lean chicken and fresh vegetables. Baking the egg rolls instead of frying them saves even more calories and these don't disappoint! They're flavor packed and I can make them often without feeling guilty. I serve them at parties, or for dinner with a side of brown rice. (Un-Chained Recipe Contest Entry)Submitted by: SARASMITTY

This was super yummy. Instead of walnuts, I sauteed some mushrooms because it's what I had on hand. It worker out wonderfully. I also added some black sesame seeds, which again, I had on hand. My husband suggested that we use ahi tuna next time instead of the chicken. Will definitely make again - 9/4/13
