Ginger-Garlic Soba Noodles with Broccoli

I love soba noodles, in fact, I prefer them over any pasta. I enjoy their rich flavor & hearty texture. I also love what is typically paired with them - sauces, herbs, spices, etc. But, they can be expensive, so when I found them on sale, I stocked up.

I used them to make magical miso when I was easing off my cleanse & then again to nourish myself when I was feeling beyond sick, but I knew I had to eat. I had broccoli on hand from my last CSA share, as well as fresh herbs, garlic & ginger. These noodles were the only thing that sounded good to me.
