Ingredients
- 1 medium carrot
- 5 oz. mushrooms
- 3-4 cloves garlic
- 1 Tbsp. ginger, freshly grated
- 5 green onions
- 2 cups savoy cabbage
- 6 cups vegetable broth (or more as desired)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. tamari (or soy sauce)
- 2 tsp. rice vinegar
- 4-5 oz. ramen noodles* (gluten-free if needed)
- Toppings (optional): mung bean sprouts, sesame seeds, cilantro, sriracha, green onions
Instructions
- Prepare veggies: Slice carrot and mushrooms. Mince garlic and grate ginger. Slice green onions and thinly slice cabbage.
- In a stockpot over medium-high heat, sauté carrot and mushroom for 5-6 minutes. (I use 3 Tbsp. broth/water for oil-free sauté method, adding more as needed.)
- When mushrooms are softened, add garlic, ginger, and green onions. Stir and sauté 1 minute.
- Add cabbage. Stir and sauté 1-2 more minutes.
- Add broth, tamari, and rice vinegar. Bring to a light boil. Then add ramen noodles.
- Lightly simmer for 5-10 minutes or until noodles are cooked.

Notes
- *Ramen noodles: I like "Lotus Foods" millet & brown rice ramen. (I use two cakes for this recipe.)
- Thickness: The noodles will soak up more broth as it sits. To prevent this, simply cook the noodles separately, then add them in towards the end of cook time. (Or for a more brothy soup, increase the broth to 7-8 cups.)
- Cabbage: If you can't find savoy cabbage, substitute with Napa cabbage or stir in fresh baby spinach towards the end of cook time.
- For gluten-free: Use GF noodles and tamari.
