I admit it, I still love ramen. In this yummy recipe, expect fast, easy, and spicy with salty, sweet, and sour flavors kicking in. The spiciness level can be adapted to your taste by adjusting the chili garlic sauce. This will make 4 side servings or 3 hearty main course servings.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1.5 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons chili-garlic sauce , or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
Instructions
-
1
Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce, and ginger together in a small bowl. Add peanut butter, whisking until well combined, and set aside.

2
Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a pot. Discard the flavor packet and add ramen noodles to the boiling water. Cook until noodles are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain noodles, reserving some of the noodle water in case you need to thin out the sauce later.

3
Pour sauce over ramen noodles, tossing until well coated. If sauce is too thick, thin out with a small amount of the reserved noodle water until you reach your desired consistency. Your hot noodles will soak up the sauce. Garnish with peanuts and green onion, and serve.

Basil Goat Cheese Pizza
This is among my husband's favorite dinners! The flavors compliment each other so well and it is so easy! I use frozen bread dough to speed the process. Set out dough before you leave for work and you are ready to go by the time you get home!
Sasa's Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bites
This is a favorite among my teenage athletes for a before-practice snack. I fill baggies with these and throw them in the freezer. The kids grab a baggie on the way to school and the mini muffins are thawed out and ready to eat before the end of the day.
Clean Carrot Muffins
These carrot muffins come out fluffy and smell amazing. The riper the banana, the sweeter these will be. I've also made them using grated apples. Love how it's all done in a blender.
