Spicy Spinach Mushroom Ramen Noodles are outrageously delicious and so easy to prepare. It’s the perfect and quick comfort food.
I love spicy ramen noodles, of any kind really. They’re absolutely delicious and so comforting when the air is crisp. On a cold day, I love plopping myself on the couch with my blanket, Netflix, and a big ol’ bowl of spicy noodles.
What are Spinach Mushroom Ramen Noodles?
These Vegan Ramen Noodles are so easy to make and flavored with crushed red pepper, garlic, shitake mushrooms, and spinach. The sauce makes this dish which is super easy to prepare. Easy Ramen Noodles are the perfect weeknight meal
Where can I find ramen noodles?
Ramen noodles are so easily available these days. I use 3-ingredient organic ramen noodles that can be found at Whole Foods, Walmart, or Amazon. These ramen noodles cook up so fast, and the best part is they’re only 3 ingredients.
Please do not use the cheap noodle packets that you find at the Indian or Asian grocery store. Use better quality noodles.
Can I make this recipe gluten-free?
Yes. Simply replace the whole wheat ramen noodles with gluten-free rice noodles – they’re absolutely delicious.
Also, keep in mind to use gluten-free soy sauce.
Tips on making Spinach Mushroom Ramen Noodles:
- Make the sauce and set it aside.
- Slice the garlic and mushrooms. Chop the spinach. Saute these veggies separately before adding them to the noodles.
- Cook the red chili flakes and garlic on low and slow else they will burn.
- Work quick and don’t saute any ingredients too long else they will get mushy.
- My recommendation is to use healthier ramen – I love Ocean’s Halo 3-ingredient organic ramen noodles. So now you’ll have Healthy Ramen Noodles, somewhat.
