Herb Cream on Soba Pasta image

This is one of my favorites. It's very filling and easier to make than it looks (especially if you do all the prep-work and then lay it out so you can just grab and add). Even my "gourmet" boss at work was jealous of my lunch. Can make it vegan too by using soy milk.
