Once all mushrooms are cooked and set aside, use same pan over medium heat to sauté spring onion for 1 minute, then add asparagus and cook for 1-2 more minutes, then add garlic greens and cook for 30 seconds. Season lightly with sea salt to taste. Remove veggies from pan.

Make this recipe gluten-free by omitting the soba noodles and doubling the asparagus. Add your favorite protein to this dish and use the miso dressing as a marinade.
