Tons of Ingredients and Bold Flavor


SkinnyMs. 

The main thing that sets restaurant ramen apart from most homemade versions? The inclusion of tons of different delicious ingredients and toppings. It’s like the difference between getting froyo and loading it up with as many toppings as you can possibly fit vs. just eating some ice cream out of the carton on your couch. One is fun and delicious, and the other is kind of boring and probably just a waste of calories.

Most make-your-own ramen kits you can pick up from the grocery store will just send you home with some weird freeze-dried peas and call it a day. Fortunately, this Instant Pot Healthy Chicken and Spinach Ramen Noodle Bowl is here to step up your homemade ramen game. Loaded with fresh, healthy ingredients, this easy recipe channels your favorite restaurant ramen order.

Chicken, mushrooms, and spinach add plenty of flavor and texture to the noodles. Meanwhile, bold flavors from fresh ginger, garlic, curry powder, and soy sauce provide a unique blend that no flavor packet could ever match. Finally, the whole thing is topped off carrots, onions, thin-sliced jalapeños, and a dash of cilantro.

The Instant Pot Makes Everything Easier
