Holy deliciousness, Batman.
I sort of went out on a limb with this recipe
because this is not something I would usually care
to try and make on my own but it was under the "Quick and Easy"
section on foodnetwork.com and the reviews were ALL positive
so I thought, "what the hey!"
So glad I did! I made a few changes because my
local grocery store didn't carry soba noodles like the recipe
calls for. I substitued Udo Noodles and I honestly can't imagine
doing it any differently.
I will be making this again, and next time I will most likely double the sauce
because I like it SAUCEY!
