Instructions

  1. Start a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Prep the soba noodles by removing the paper wrappers around each bunch of noodles.
  2. When water is almost boiling, drain the tofu. Add the tofu to a bowl and heat in the microwave for about 4 minutes. This will evaporate a lot of the liquid.
  3. Add the tofu to a wok or large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Crumble with a wooden spoon and let it finish cooking out the liquid. Add about 1/2 of the Thai Chili Sauce. Stir and continue to brown.
  4. Add the soba noodles to the pot of water and start a timer according to the package instructions.
  5. Add the Sliced Bell Peppers, sugar snap peas, and carrots to the tofu. Cook quickly, stirring often. Continue cooking 3-4 minutes. Add the bean sprouts and almost all of the Green onions and as much of the Thai Chili Sauce as you like. Remove immediately from the heat.
  6. Drain the soba noodles and add to the wok. Stir together and serve immediately with more Green onions.
