Method

In a large bowl, whisk together tamari, sesame seeds, agave nectar, garlic and oil to make a dressing; set aside.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Meanwhile, soak noodles in a large bowl of cold water until pliable, about 15 minutes; drain well.

Add noodles to boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 6 minutes.

Rinse thoroughly in cold water, drain and transfer to bowl with reserved dressing; toss well.

Add green onions, carrots, cucumber, peppers and tofu and toss gently to combine.

Transfer to bowls, top with cilantro and serve.
