Ingredients
-
1.8 oz (50 g)quick-cooking ramen noodles
-
½vegetable bouillon cube
-
2.8 oz (80 g)firm tofu, cut into 1 cm cubes
-
3button mushrooms, sliced
-
1stalk green onion, thinly sliced
-
½ cup (15 g)fresh spinach
-
1½ cups (360 mL)boiling water
Directions
- Layer your soup ingredients in a mason jar or another heat-proof container. Noodles should go at the bottom, followed by the miso and bouillon cube, then tofu*, green onion, and lastly the mushrooms and spinach. Keep sealed in the fridge until ready to eat.
- When ready to enjoy, carefully pour boiling water into your jar**, plus more if needed to fully submerge all the ingredients. Or transfer the contents into a bowl and pour the water on top to cover.
- Add a cover, let sit for about 3 - 5 minutes or until the noodles are cooked. Garnish and enjoy!
Notes
- * If you have extra time: pan fry the tofu in a tsp of coconut oil to crisp up the sides.
- ** Mason jars can get very hot, so be sure to handle them with care. If the glass jar is cold, add a small splash of hot water to the jar first and swirl around before adding the rest.
Storage
- Best if enjoyed right away after adding the boiling water.
- The prepped soup can be stored in the fridge for up to two days, so long as no water has been added.

Discussion & Rating
I like this recipe, especially for taking along to work. I usually add instead of the bullion cube, 1 teaspoon of Bonito powder (available at an Asian Supermarket), because I like the fishy taste.
I’m interested in your plates and bowls. Will you share links pls?
Best soup ever! Very quick, easy, and very comforting.
I love trying your recipes but this one confused me a little bit. How can we boil mushrooms only in 5 minutes?
This is such an easy, filling soup! I have made it twice in as many days. It's definitely staying on my winter soup rotation.
I'm currently spending time at Japan and I was saved by this simple recipe. I only have a small fridge and a water cooker on my personal use. I used the common kitchen to chop all the incridients and had a simple food to eat at my room <3. Thank you!
I'll share my thoughts while my soup is still too hot to enjoy. Since I wasn't pressed for time, I decided to "upgrade" it a bit. I fried the tofu (as suggested) but I also added some onion, garlic and ginger (I'll add even more next time) and fried them (together with mushrooms) before adding the rest of the ingredients. It is really tasty, and most importantly super easy to make. I will surely be making this again :) (Even with the extra steps it still took me less than 30 mins.) Thank, Sadia!
I admit it!! I postponed on making this dish because I thought it would be just salty soup.. but I'm so happy I finally tried it!! It is super tasty!! Great for a late night snack too!
I also have a question, what type of miso do you use?
I use shiro miso and I was wondering if different miso pastes create a great difference in flavour?
ALERT!!! MUST TRY THE RECIPE! Not only easy but super tasty.
The recipe was really amazing. As it told I did within 10 minutes as I was damn hungry. Saved my pocket money especially. Coz in hunger, I might order n eat which would hole my pocket. So thank you for saving my pocket and soothing my empty stomach. Hehe. Thank you, Guys.
Easy to make, flavorful and healthy. Great recipe! Thank you!
This was surprisingly good! I haven't had much success with homemade miso recipes, for whatever reason they always seem to lack flavor. But this recipe was not only really easy and quick to put together, and mostly consisted of ingredients I already had-- it also was super flavorful! And required almost no cleanup. I can definitely see myself making this again. Thanks for the great recipe.
This was so easy!! Really great for a lazy day. I added extra veggies to mine :)
Absolutely delicious! Thank you so much! :D
Lovely recipe! Thank you!
Hi Sadia,
I only have the white miso paste not the red one. Does this recipe still work ?
Thanks!
Amazing! I felt like eating at a restaurant!
I was really surprised when I tried it the other day because it was so easy ! Such a lovely dinner idea.
Oh sadia, you saved me!! I ate it almost everyday last week and I loooooove it! It's so simple and so delicious! I'm a bit addicted and can't get enough of it! It's very cold when I'm working and I can't bring anything to heat it up and that is a great solution! I would love it if there was a few variations with this kind of soup making!
My husband and I love this dish! It is simply delicious and so easy to make!
It was delicious!! Love it. I addna few drops of lemon and it was amazing!
Very easy, delicious and nourishing!
Super quick and easy to make and delicious as well!
This has been a go-to lunch option since I found out about it! SO GOOD!!!
Was a super quick meal! Really nice to have such a delicious quick option. I couldn't find miso paste to buy so used soya sauce instead which worked out fine. Definitely going to make this again!
Honestly, this was much better than thought it would be. I thought it wouldn’t have much flavour but it does, though mild. It’s very comforting and super quick and easy to make!
Our family loves making your dishes, especially this one!
Thank you for sharing your recipes and positivity!
We will be making this soon. I know it will be delicious and love that added spinach! And yes to Sriracha! Thank you!
Awesome recipe! A big hit in our house. Thank you.
Amazing, quick recipe - has become a staple in our house since we first tried it! I usually add some coconut milk to it to make it creamier - makes for the perfect pick-me-up warm liquid hug <3
This recipe is soo good. I didnt’t rake long and the results were amazing. I didnt have mushrooms so I used zucchini instead! It still tasted great. Thanks so much pick up limes:)
Miso soup is the best! It’s just the thing for a cold or when you have the flu and preparing it like this makes it a cinch to prepare!
I tried this one out, because Ramen is my absolute favorite meal, and this is such a good recipe. It can be made during the week, even when work is busy, because it doesn't cost too much time. You're the best Sadia!
Do you think you can more Ramen recipes in the future? I already tried out lot's of combinations (with peanut butter, Pak Choi, with soy milk etc.) but I would love to hear your thoughts on it :) I have the feeling, Asian recipes offers many options for vegans.
Best Wishes, Marc :)
Miam! This was so tasty! I love this thick Asian soups!
I just wanted to tell you that I in no way consider myself plant based or vegan, just a girl trying to live a healthier life and leave the world a little better, but i have eaten this everyday for lunch this week ! it is amazing and so delish! I use forbidden rice noodles, soooo good. And thank you for introducing me to Samabal Oelek, where was this sauce of the gods my whole life! A huge hug and thank you from little 'ol Tri Cities, WA :) Have a nourished day!
This was so simple and fast to make - thank you very much for this recipe. I added some wakame, which also tasted wonderful.
Plus, I love your new design, super fun to scroll through the page and recipes! :-)
Kind regards from Austria!
This was so easy and delicious! Definitely something I will make regularly :))
The soup looks beautiful and yummy! Love the new site, great job!
A quick question: Is the sodium/serving really 2670 mg? :O Feels like an error... Just wanted to give a heads up in case it was.
Thank you!
