Why You’ll Love These Saucy Vegan Ramen Noodles

These noodles stand out for their rich, savory sauce—a harmonious blend of soy, garlic, ginger, and a touch of sweetness. The noodles soak up every drop, resulting in a dish that’s slurpable and comforting, yet light enough for a standalone lunch or dinner.

Paired with quickly-cooked veggies, this recipe strikes a balance between indulgent and nutritious. Bonus: It’s ready in less time than it takes to order takeout.

Essential Prep for the Perfect Vegan Ramen

Start by prepping your veggies. To save time and guarantee even cuts, use the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper for everything from onions to bell peppers and carrots. This not only streamlines the process but also ensures your veggies cook uniformly.

While your water boils, whisk together the sauce in a small bowl for efficiency, and set it aside so it’s ready when the noodles are done.

Cooking and Topping Your Ramen Noodles

Cook your noodles according to package directions, but drain them a minute early to prevent sogginess—a nonstick pan like the SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch is ideal for quick sautéing and tossing the sauce without burning or sticking.

Add your prepped veggies, sauté until crisp-tender, then add the cooked noodles and pour over your sauce. Toss to coat, letting the noodles absorb the flavors. For an extra silky texture, splash in a tablespoon of reserved noodle cooking water.

Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and chili flakes for a hit of flavor and crunch. Any leftovers? Transfer them to Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers for effortless meal prep and storage.

Serving Suggestions for Saucy, Satisfying Vegan Ramen

Serve these noodles steaming hot in bowls, with extra chili paste on the side. For a balanced meal, pair with a crunchy side salad—transport it easily using the Bentgo Salad Container for lunch or picnics.

These noodles are fantastic solo or as part of a larger spread. Try them with air-fried tofu or crispy veggies for added protein and variety.
