Healthy eating

As part of the healthy eating project, I got to have some miso soup on Day 11 of the healthy clean eating cleanse, so I was reminded of how tasty it is!

Treat yourself to a delicious vegan miso ramen – the perfect comfort food! Packed with flavor and easy to make, this soup is a healthy meal option for busy days. It’s sure to become your favorite go-to dish.

Sometimes we add ½ cup frozen peas.

Or, we add a beautiful poached egg or two on top.

You could also add carrots, broccoli, bamboo shoots, baby corn, or water chestnuts as your heart desires.

What to do with the flavor packet

To get the dried ramen noodles, I buy those really cheap packages of ramen that you can make on the stove, and they’re about 30 cents each.

Take the flavor packet out and throw it away (or in the compost).

It’s really high in sodium, and has very little redeeming value, so I don’t feel too bad doing this.

Replacing the flavor packet with miso is a much healthier choice.

Miso is high in vitamin B12, low in calories, a decent source of protein (2 grams of protein for just 25 calories). And, it’s so much tastier than those packets.

Looking for more things to do with that miso paste? Check out my Miso Walnut Sauce, Miso Glazed Cod, and Miso Tahini Pasta.

    This looks so lovely. I love miso soup and the idea of putting ramen in is genius! I’ve been going through an Asian food phase (or faux-Asian, since I just sort of make it all up)…

    Miso soup is one of the things I miss most about NY. This soup reminds me of a Thai restaurant in NYC called White Ginger. They had a very similar Miso Soup and now I am feeling home sick. I will make your recipe soon.

    Instant ramen noodles, the ones that cost .30, have been deep fried that’s why the fat content is so high, not sure if that counts as clean food

    I made this tonight because I had all the ingredients in the house; except ramen noodles, I subbed chow mein noodles. It was great, very tasty, but next time I will make it with ramen noodles.

    This was fantastic! So miso-y, a generous portion, and eye-wateringly affordable. Normally the noodles are the highlight for me, but I don’t know which I’m more sad is gone: the broth or the noodles. I added just a touch of soy sauce and sriracha at the end.

    Does this freeze well?

    Jennifer, I’ve never frozen it myself. I’m not sure how ramen noodles would freeze. But I have frozen soups like minestrone and they work just fine. I’d say give it a try and if you do, let me know how it goes.
