What Goes Into A Healthy Ramen Noodle Bowl

Don’t be turned off by all of the ingredients in this meal. It’s actually quite simple to make! Simply grab a stockpot and heat some sesame oil over medium heat. Add shredded carrots and sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook for two minutes. Toss in some grated ginger and minced garlic and cook for another minute. 

Next up, broth! You can use either chicken broth or vegetable broth, just make sure that it’s low sodium. Pour it into your stockpot with rice vinegar and sriracha. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for five minutes. Add your ramen noodles (we recommend a whole grain variety such as Lotus Foods Rice Ramen) and cook for two to three minutes or until the noodles are full cooked.

Finally, stir in chopped kale and deshelled edamame before dividing the ramen noodles equally among six bowls. Top with green onions, sesame seeds and a boiled egg before serving.
