Quick Vegan Miso Noodles
These light ginger-miso noodles are a refreshing dinner on busy nights. Ready in 20 minutes. Made in 1 pot with minimal chopping. To make it more filling, serve with sliced avocado, sesame seeds, baked tofu, peanuts, or cashews. You can also whisk a couple of tablespoons of nut or seed butter (sunbutter is great in this) into the dressing for added richness.

Ingredients
- 8 ounces rice noodles I used brown rice Pad Thai noodles.
- 1 large carrot, peeled and diced
- 2 cups frozen shelled edamame
- 1 cup frozen sweet corn
- zest from half a lime, optional This adds significantly more lime flavor than the juice, so use it if you're a fan!
- 2 tablespoons lime juice From about 1 lime.
- 2 ½ tablespoons tamari Or soy sauce or shoyu if GF isn't needed.
- 2 tablespoons white miso
- 1 ½ teaspoons freshly grated ginger Approx. small thumb-size piece of ginger root.
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup or agave
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1 large clove garlic, minced or grated
For serving:
- ¼ cup chopped green onion
- fresh greens like baby spinach, chopped cabbage, arugula, optional
Instructions
- Heat a large pot of salted water for the noodles. Check the instructions on the noodle package; cook time for rice noodles is typically around 5 minutes. Add noodles and carrot to boiling water, and cook for 1 minute. Stir occasionally to prevent noodles from sticking.
- By the end of the minute the water should have returned to a boil. Add the edamame to the pot, stir, and set timer for 5 minutes. As soon as the water returns to a boil, add the corn. Once noodles are tender, drain in a colander. Rinse with water to prevent sticking. Drain well.
- In a large serving bowl whisk together the lime zest and juice, tamari, miso, ginger, sweetener, rice vinegar, and garlic. Add the cooled noodles and veggies to the serving bowl and toss with the dressing. Top with green onion. The noodles can be served warm or cold.
- Arrange greens on individual serving plates, if using, top with noodles, and green onion, and serve.
