mama eats her greens! – asian greens over soba or zucchini noodles

 

 

You might think all we eat is red sauce, right? 

Well, we actually can’t get enough of our greens, especially spinach & kale – hello iron! Vitamins K, A & C! Sometimes we just want our greens over noodles. Here is my quick and easy spicy Asian style greens. This dish is so satisfying and great left over too. Feel free to add MORE greens by using zucchini noodles, picture shows brown rice soba noodles. You can sub kale and spinach with chard and bok choy too.
