Soba Noodles with Bell Pepper and Mango

Here is an improvisational dish for those who like the melding of sweet and savory. Earthy buckwheat noodles and salty peanuts meet the bright, sweet notes of mango, bell pepper, lemon zest, basil and mint. A savory dressing with a hint of honey pulls the diverse flavors together.
