Health and fertility benefits of Shrimp and Soba Noodle Salad

Sesame seeds help with progesterone balance. Lignans found in in sesame seeds help to prevent excess estrogen production. Fresh spinach is an excellent source of vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin B6, all of which have significant roles in reducing inflammation in the body, all of which help in the case of infertility. Miso is extremely nutrient-dense and believed to alkalinize the body and stop the effects of carcinogens in the system.

Ingredients

1/4 cup miso paste
1/4 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons rice vinegar, or more to taste
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1 tablespoon orange juice
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
1 teaspoon mirin (Japanese sweet wine)
1 teaspoon peanut butter
1 teaspoon chile garlic sauce
1 (8.8 ounce) package dried soba noodles
2 cups baby spinach
1 cup carrots, cut into matchstick-size pieces
1/2 cup shredded cabbage
1/2 cup sliced snow peas
8 cherry tomatoes
16 cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 green onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

Whisk miso paste, canola oil, rice vinegar, orange zest, orange juice, ginger, mirin, peanut butter, and chile garlic sauce together in a bowl until dressing is blended.
Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Stir in soba noodles and return water to a boil. Boil noodles until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain noodles in a colander under cold running water until cool, about 1 minute. Toss cooked soba noodles with 1/2 of the miso dressing in a large bowl until thoroughly coated.
Divide spinach among 4 serving bowls; top each with 1/4 of the dressed noodles. Divide carrots, cabbage, snow peas, and cherry tomatoes among each bowl; top each with 4 shrimp. Drizzle remaining miso dressing onto each bowl to taste; sprinkle with green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
