Japanese Noodle Bowl with Broccoli

Garden fresh broccoli is featured in this Japanese Udon noodle bowl. The noodles and vegetables are bathed in a slightly sweet broth seasoned with ginger, miso, rice wine vinegar and a touch of wasabi. Chopped green onions and peanuts finish this flavorful noodle dish. Add Asian-style baked tofu to provide additional protein to the bowl.

This meal is a real celebration of summer flavors and is finished with some chilled cantaloupe.
