Vegetarian Ramen with Thai Peanut Sauce

User Rating 1 Star Rating (1 Review) Write a review

By , About.com Guide

Use ramen instead of noodles for a quick, cheap, and budget-friendly meal for vegetarians and vegans. This one is great for college students who love ramen, but get a bit bored of the usual spice packet it comes with. This recipe sure ain't fancy, but it gets the job done, cheap. Be sure to look for a vegetarian ramen package.

Ingredients:

  • 1 package ramen
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 3 tbsp peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp ginger powder
  • 1 tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 2-3 green onions, chopped (optional)

Preparation:

Cook the ramen in water for 5 to 7 minutes, or until done. Drain the excess water and add remaining ingredients, stirring until peanut butter is melted and ingredients are well mixed.

Surprised at how thick the PB sauce stayed despite the hot noodles. Will go with the natural PB and low-sodium soy to cut the saltiness. Maple syrup was a nice sub for the sugar too.
