There is so much good stuff packed into this asian-inspired bowl, plus it’s not super heavy like most noodle bowls. The combination of roasted veggies, sweet potato noodles and soba noodle with the creamy spicy peanut sauce and crunchy nuts always hits the spot.

Whip it up after you get home from work, or make a big batch on Sunday & pack it for lunch all week! —Anneka Bjorkeson

A couple of questions:
Which veggies should I roast?
You mention sweet potato noodles in the note but they are not listed in the ingredients. If I am to make them with the half sweet potato, how do I do it?
