Ingredients for This Crunchy Vegan Ramen Noodle Salad

See the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

Carrots, Cabbage, Green Onions

• Ramen Noodle Soup: I love a vegan and gluten free ramen noodle soup which is made with rice noodles and a miso based sauce. It has great flavor and is perfect for those who are trying to eat more vegan or gluten free. If you don’t have any dietary restrictions, then you can use any ramen noodles you desire.
• Lightly Salted Peanuts: for a yummy, nutty crunch! I like to use only unsalted or lightly salted peanuts when I cook.
• Light Sesame Oil: The sesame oil gives the perfect sweet flavor to the sauce of this dish.
• Rice vinegar: I love this sweet & tangy rice vinegar.
• Maple Syrup for natural sweetness
• Sesame Seeds – I love adding a handful of these sesame seeds to finish off this salad recipe! These seeds add a nice crunch and light flavor to the ramen.
