STEP TWO:GRILLING THE VEGETABLES Heat grill (medium to high heat) Coat the vegetables and garlic with the olive oil (place garlic on a skewer for ease of handling). Sprinkle with 1 tsp of the salt. Because each vegetable takes a different time to cook you will need to start by placing the garlic cloves on the hot grill first. After 5 minutes add the bell peppers. After 3 minutes add the eggplant and onion. After 3 minutes add the zucchini and tomatoes. Cook until vegetables are tender. Remove skin from garlic and also the bell peppers (cool slightly first). Mash the garlic (with a fork). Cut all vegetables into bite-sized pieces. STEP THREE:SERVING Into a large serving bowl, place all the vegetables along with the basil, thyme, pepper, the remaining alt and the mashed garlic, then gently toss to combine. Toss in the warm soba noodles and serve.

TIP: please test to see if you can eat buckwheat (soya) noodles. They are higher in carbs but do not get absorbed like most carbs. Contain an ingredient which removes them from your system quickly.
