This Vegetarian-Friendly Recipe For Noodles In A Mason Jar Will Make Meal Prep This Week Easy
Everyone knows that cooking meals at home is more sustainable than getting takeout daily. Not only is it better for your body, but it also saves you a ton of money.
That’s why the concept of meal prepping has skyrocketed in popularity, especially among those who have to go into the office every day and don’t want to buy lunch.
However, prepping and cooking your own meals can be a struggle. It takes a lot of time out of your day. Two hours or more are spent in the kitchen just focusing on food, so there goes your Sunday!
In addition, life often gets in the way, whether it’s your friends, family, or hobbies. Something always comes up that makes it difficult to turn meal-prepping into a consistent habit.
So if you’re trying to stick to your plan of meal prepping but haven’t had any success so far, here’s a foolproof trick that will help keep you in check. Plus, your wallet will thank you!
One TikToker named Kylie (@nutritionbykylie) is a registered dietitian, and she’s showing you how to make these mason jar noodles that are healthy and vegetarian-friendly.
The noodles are prepared in a mason jar; the best part is that you don’t really need to do any actual cooking.
Mason jar noodles include everything you need for a nutritious, well-balanced lunch. Here’s how to make them.
First, add the base, which is a spoonful of chili garlic oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, and vegetable bouillon.

Next, add the vegetables: kimchi, snow peas, a handful of shredded carrots, and bok choy. Finally, throw in a couple of cubes of tofu for protein.
Place the rice noodles in, and make sure to bring the mason jars to room temperature before pouring in hot water.
Add the hot water to the noodles when you’re ready to eat. Then, shake the jar to let the soup base mix with the water.
Mason jars are convenient for storing and transporting your meals, but eating noodles from a jar can be a pain. Sure, it’s entirely possible, but to make things easier, bring a bowl to pour the broth in.
Enjoy your lunch! Don’t you just love the idea of mason jar noodles?
