3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

8 ounces snow peas, stems and strings removed
|
|
1 pound whole-wheat bow-tie (farfalle) pasta
|
|
2 stalks celery, sliced on the bias

Tip: To poach chicken breasts: Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a medium skillet or saucepan and add lightly salted water to cover; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer gently until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes.
To toast sesame seeds: Place in a small dry skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.
