Soba Salad!

I have a hard time finding soba out here, but it is worth the search! Soba noodles are buckwheat noodles, and not nearly as scary as they sound! I thought they might have a very different taste, but they are quite mild. This salad is wonderful, and you can add a lot more of the veggies than it calls for!

1 package soba
1/2 English cucumber, thinly sliced
1/4 head red cabbage, thinly sliced
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
3 Tbs. olive oil
coarse salt and ground pepper
4 oz. feta, crumbled

1. Cook soba according to package instructions. Drain.
2. In a bowl, combine cucumber, cabbage, shallot, parsley, lemon juice, and oil. Add soba. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Toss with feta, and serve garnished with parsley.
