Vegan instant ramen is an easy meal to make if you’re a student, feeling lazy, low on groceries, or just needing an easy, quick fix for comfort food. 

As I do with many classic dishes, today I’m going to level-up a package of vegetable instant noodles and turn it into a quick vegan instant ramen.

This leveled-up instant ramen adds a crazy amount of flavour without adding too much cost or time to making your bowl of soup. This recipe makes a spicy, creamy bowl of noodles that adds nutrients and flavour to a simple meal.

Most instant ramen packages are already vegan, but be sure to check the ingredients or opt for the vegetable flavours. Share with a friend who is feeling under the weather or enjoy on a cloudy day when you need a warmed belly.

I saw a version of this hack on a Korean Tik Tok account and had to try it. Like many Tik Tok recipes, this is an easy bowl made with simple ingredients.
