Serve this spicy Korean noodle salad for lunch or dinner! Add a few extra hardboiled eggs for more protein. Jjolmyeon is a type of Korean noodle typically used in this dish that is made from wheat flour and starch, giving it a chewy texture. Using cassava noodles may not be traditional, but it does make it grain-free and gluten-free! This noodle dish also typically uses a spicy Korean red chili powder or paste—instead, I have created a dressing that uses ingredients most home cooks have in their pantries. 

Ingredients
16 ounces cassava spaghetti noodles cooked al dente
4 hard boiled eggs
1 small heads romaine lettuce thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
½ small heads red cabbage thinly sliced (about 3 cups)

1 cups kim chi
1 small bunches green onions thinly sliced
1 large handfuls microgreens

3 tablespoons brown rice vinegar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons raw honey
2 tablespoons wheat-free tamari
1½ teaspoons paprika
1½ teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
