These peanut miso noodles are tasty, nutritious and don’t compromise on protein.
These 15-minute noodles are made with simple ingredients like mild sodium miso, gochujang and soy sauce. You can easily make them for lunch, dinner or meal prep.
The tempeh is also seasoned well with soy sauce and the sauce mixture prepared for the noodles. Tempeh is an incredible source of protein for vegans and vegetarians, packing up to 18g of protein per 100g of serving. Though it slightly less than meat, you can pair this additionally with high protein ingredients, like peas, edamame or roasted chickpeas!
The gluten free version of this recipe requires the noodles to be substituted with gluten free noodles (like brown rice ramen or rice noodles), soy sauce with tamari and gochujang with chili paste or chili flakes. Remember to also check if your miso is gluten free. I use the organic low sodium miso as shown below.
