Ingredients

• Soba noodles - 200 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Cherry tomatoes - 150 grams, halved
• Bell pepper - 1 medium, sliced
• Zucchini - 1 small, sliced
• Spinach - 100 grams, fresh
• Nutritional yeast - 3 tablespoons
• Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Basil - 1 teaspoon, dried or fresh for garnish

Steps

1. Cook the soba noodles according to package instructions, then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Add the cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
4. Stir in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with soy sauce, salt, and black pepper to taste.
5. In a large bowl, combine the cooked soba noodles with the sautéed vegetables. Mix in the nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor.
6. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Spread the noodle and vegetable mixture onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, shaping it into a pizza base.
7. Bake the soba noodle pizza in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until the edges are crispy.
8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with basil before slicing and serving.
