Citrus Green Tea Soba With Glazed Rainbow Carrots

• Citrus Green Tea Soba
• 3 tablespoons chickpea miso
• 1 cup strongly brewed green tea
• 1 teaspoon grated ginger
• 1 clove garlic, grated
• 1 key lime, juiced
• 1 teaspoon coconut aminos
• 2 dried shitake mushrooms
• 1 serving green tea soba
• black sesame seeds for garnish
• Glazed Rainbow Carrots
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 1/2 teaspoons honey or agave
• 8 small rainbow carrots, peeled and tops removed
• 1/4 teaspoon smoked sea salt
• fresh cracked pepper

1. For the Soba: Combine the chickpea Miso, green tea, ginger, garlic, lime, coconut aminos and mushrooms in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. While the sauce is simmering, prepare the soba according to the package's instructions.
2. For the Carrots: Heat the sesame oil in a medium skillet. Add the carrots and cook for 3 minutes. Add the water and continue cooking the carrots until they are slightly soft, approximately 5 minutes (this may vary depending on the size of your carrots). Drizzle the honey over the carrots and add the salt and a generous amount of cracked pepper, toss the carrots to coat evenly and cook an additional 2 minutes.
3. To Serve: Transfer the pasta to a bowl and pour the miso sauce over the noodles until covered (you won't use all of the sauce). Top with the glazed carrots and garnish with the black sesame seeds.
