First and foremost, if you are new here I am going to apologize right off the bat. My fly by the seat of my pants personality pushed me to share a recipe on Instagram stories last night that I was testing, and the people spoke. They want the recipe. And guess what? I have one, ONE horrific dark picture to share with you all and I am a bit mortified. I like beautiful pictures of food, but if I am being honest, this meal was so damn good that I will sacrifice my photography to share this recipe with you all, tonight.
So, you’re welcome.
And, again, I’m sorry.
4 cups broccoli florets
1 head of cauliflower cut into florets
2 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Pinch of salt for broccoli
6 packages of Ramen Noodles WITHOUT the seasoning packet
1 Tbsp Better Than Bouillon Paste, chicken version or vegetable
1 tsp garlic powder
1 bunch of green onion, cut into inch-long chunks
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 cup general tso’s sauce (or your favorite sauce)
Feel free to adjust the amounts in this recipe, it is VERY flexible (amount of broccoli/cauliflower and ramen is enough to feed 5) This is the general so’s sauce I use!
- Pre heat the oven to 350*
- Line a baking sheet with foil and spritz with non stick spray
- Place broccoli + cauliflower onto the baking sheet
- Drizzle both with one tablespoon of olive oil
- Add a pinch of salt to the broccoli + cauliflower
- Toss cauliflower with sauce of choice, we use general tso’s
- Bake both at 375* for 25-30 minutes
- *You can also chop the cauliflower, add it to a saute pan with the sauce oven medium heat for 25-30 minutes while the broccoli roasts. This will too give it the yummy sticky sauce to coat the cauliflower!
While the vegetables are roasting, BOIL water for Ramen Noodles
- Add Ramen Noodles along with the better than bouillon base, garlic powder, pepper and green onion.
- Boil until noodles are tender, and cooked through
- Remove noodles from the broth, and add to bowl for serving!
- IF YOU PREFER A SOUPY RAMEN, simply keep the liquid used to boil, and add the better than bouillon to the water to season!
Remove broccoli and cauliflower from oven, set to the side.
Assemble as you wish! Add broccoli + cauliflower to the bowl with ramen.
I like to put together everything side by side. Noodles, broccoli and cauliflower. I drizzle everything with a bit of sriracha and sesame seeds – if you are feeling feisty add a fried egg on top to really take this dish over the edge!
Here is the better than bouillon paste I use, and adore! It comes in beef and vegetable too! This is just for reference, it is WAY cheaper in stores. I buy a huge container of it at Costco for less than $6
