A little while ago I indulged in the simplistic and savory joy of Nigella's soba noodles and whatever I had on hand for green goodness was what I added to the meal.
For Nigella's recipe of Sesame Soba Noodles, follow here:

I will say that I amend her very easy dish somewhat by mixing in sauteed mushrooms. I also don't strictly follow her measurements for the sauce, but instead dash in rough estimates accordingly and season to taste. I am inevitably close, but I think the fun is in approximation and not rigidity, at least with something as carefree as noodles.
I will also confirm Nigella in that these noodles are wonderful as a left over snack, straight from the fridge.
One:
I made the noodles with left over baked squash and freshly sauteed kale. Warm and cool temperatures were a satisfying juxtaposition.
Two:
I seasoned yams as I fancied and baked until soft and slightly golden.
The kale - an excellent winter green for salad - was chopped and drizzled with a honeyed vinaigrette, which went well with the honey in the noodles.
