Thanks, Tina! We love gnocchi and often have it w/ marinara and some sort of veggies thrown in -- usually spinach and asparagus. I've never heard of almond soba noodles, will have to keep my eye out :).

It's a recipe actually - have some almond butter I need to use up!

Tina, I love those noodles but would caution you to taste as you go with the curry paste. I thought the end product was great when I made them, but my husband found them too spicy (and I thought there was no such thing for him!). Now I just have them when I'm alone :D

Enjoy!
