SAVORY MUSHROOM AND VEGETABLE RAMEN SOUP [VEGAN]

INGREDIENTS

• 6 ounces ramen noodles
• 4 cups mushroom broth, vegetable broth, or water
• 1 cup broccoli
• 1 cup shiitake mushrooms
• 1/2 cup beech mushrooms
• 1 cup baby kale
• 1/4 cup grated rainbow carrots
• 2 cloves of garlic, diced
• 1 small shallot, diced
• Juice from 1 lime
• Olive oil
• Salt, to taste
• Red chili flakes (optional)

PREPARATION

1. Steam the broccoli over boiling water and heat a large pan over medium-low heat and add some olive oil.
2. Add two diced cloves of garlic and one small shallot to the pan, let them simmer for a bit until they start to become translucent, and then add chopped shiitake and beech mushrooms.
3. Let the mushrooms, garlic and shallot cook together for a few minutes, then add a splash of tamari sauce and the baby kale, and let that cook until the kale starts to wilt (1-2 minutes).
4. By then the broccoli should be tender, so remove it from the burner and set aside.
5. In a pot, bring 4 cups of broth to a boil, and add the ramen noodles. They will slowly start to separate, and you can pull them apart with a fork to help them cook faster.
6. When the noodles are cooked, add the broth and noodles to a bowl with the mushrooms, kale, and broccoli.
7. Grate some rainbow carrots on top, red chili flakes, a blend of organic seaweed flakes, a pinch of salt, and the juice from 1 lime.
