Ramen is a major comfort food of mine. It is so hearty and warms my soul so much when I am eating. When you go out to eat it can be full of unknown ingredients and although delicious, it may not be exactly what your body can handle. That is exactly my experience so I, of course, created my own. This Gluten-free Spicy Ramen soup is full of Asian-inspired flavors all melded into one bowl.
One of my favorite parts about and soup is the broth! I especially love Asian-inspired flavors in the broth and this one has it all! Curry, lime, green onion, cilantro, coconut aminos, and fish sauce all simmered together to make a delicious soup for a cold day.
A little bit about the noodles that I use- Lotus Foods. I forever have just used rice noodles, which work perfectly in the soup, but I found Lotus Foods recently. All their products have minimal ingredients and are totally gluten-free. I really love their rice ramen because you can get lots of different varieties! From forbidden rice to millet and brown rice. I have tried them all in the soup and they are all so good!
This ramen soup is so easy to make and may look like a lot of ingredients, but trust me, when you have it once you will want to keep making it! It takes less than 30 minutes and can make two large bowls or enough smaller bowls for a few days.
Tips for Gluten-free Spicy Ramen Soup:
- You might be wondering how to make this Whole30 compliant. It is actually really easy- you just need to swap the noodles out! You can either use veggies noodles or hearts of palm noodles would be my choice.
- If you want to adjust the spice- go for it! You can add as much sriracha or red pepper flakes as you like.
- Speaking of Sriracha- there is one that is Whole30 compliant. This Yellowbird one is perfectly acceptable as long as it is the organic line!
