For a gluten-free option, I have personally used both \u00a0soba noodles and Barilla gluten-free spaghetti noodles with success.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vegetables<\/strong>: Let your palate and produce drawer guide you! I personally love using a combination of broccoli slaw, red bell peppers, and green onions. Broccoli florets, shredded carrots, sugar snap peas, steamed edamame, cucumber, bean sprouts, or shredded green or red cabbage are all great options as well.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>For the Sesame Soy Dressing:\u00a0<\/strong>To make this sweet and savory dressing, opt for<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>reduced-sodium soy sauce to control the sodium, toasted sesame oil for nutty undertones, fresh garlic and ginger for flavor, honey or maple syrup to sweeten, and rice vinegar to balance it all out.\u00a0Add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes if desired for heat. <\/li>\n<li><strong>For Crunch<\/strong>: Finishing the noodle salad with sesame seeds or chopped peanuts, adds a nice crunch and additional nutty flavor to the dish.
