Ingredients
-
1 medium yellow squash
-
1 medium zucchini
-
1 cup corn kernels, fresh or frozen
-
8 ounces soba noodles
-
¼ cup ponzu sauce (see Tip)
-
2 tablespoons tahini
-
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
-
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
-
3 scallions, sliced
-
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
Directions
-
Put a large saucepan of water on to boil.
-
Spiralize squash and zucchini into medium-thick "noodles." (Alternatively, cut them lengthwise into long, thin strips with a vegetable peeler. Stop when you reach the seeds in the middle--seeds make the strips fall apart.) Place the vegetable noodles and corn in a large colander.
-
Cook soba noodles in the boiling water according to package directions. Pour over the vegetables in the colander to drain.
-
Meanwhile, combine ponzu, tahini, oil, vinegar and salt in a large bowl.
-
Add the soba and vegetable noodles to the bowl along with tomatoes and scallions. Toss to combine. Serve topped with sesame seeds.
Tips
Tip: Ponzu, a Japanese soy sauce blend, gets complex flavor from tangy vinegar and citrus, plus some have added umami-packed fish flakes and seaweed. If you're vegan, look for a brand that skips the fish or make a substitute by combining 2 Tbsp. each soy sauce and lemon juice with a splash of rice vinegar.
Equipment: Spiralizer

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
