Are you also fond of noodles? Easy to take along to work, hot and spicy, warm and tasty… it’s a perfect snack or office lunch.
Those packages of noodles are also packed in multiple plastic sachets, and are filled with E-numbers you don’t want to know you’re eating….
I found a healthy, greener…and tastier!…. alternative: noodles in a jar!
All you need is a 500 ml glass jar, a family size package of noodles, spices and vegetable stock, and fresh vegetables.
Before you leave for work, fill your jar with fresh vegetables that don’t require long cooking ( sprouts, frozen peas, leek, paprika, carrots, use your imagination…and whatever is available in your kitchen).
Add a big teaspoon of organic vegetable stock, and spices to taste. I usually add a spoon of curry powder and some extra black pepper.
Then, fill your jar to the top with noodles. You may need to break them a bit to fit in.
If you’re in a hurry in the morning, you can also prepare this the night before and keep it in the fridge.
At work all you’ll need is a bowl, a spoon, and some boiling water. Pour the contents of your jar in a bowl, add hot water until your noodles all well covered. Cover and wait for a minute or so, stirr, then eat.
Enjoy!
I’ve seen so many salad in jars but any noodles!!! Such a good idea yumm
