Mason Jar Instant Noodles

This recipe for mason jar instant noodles is written for 1 mason jar, and you can easily scale it for the number of jars you would like to make. My noodles come in an 8-ounce box, so I typically prepare 4 jars at a time. Fresh bean sprouts were not available to me at this time but they make a great addition here.

Ingredients

1 (32 ounce) large mouth mason jar with lid
1/2 cup cubed cooked chicken
2 baby carrots, shredded
1/4 cup chopped cabbage
2 dried shiitake mushrooms, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sriracha sauce
2 ounces thin rice noodles, broken up
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon cube
2 1/2 cups boiling water

Directions

Place chopped chicken in the bottom of the mason jar. Add carrots, cabbage, mushrooms, and green onion.
Top with sesame oil, soy sauce, and Sriracha sauce. Add noodles. Crumble bouillon cube over the top. Refrigerate until ready to use.
When ready to serve, pour boiling water into the jar. Screw the lid on and let sit 5 minutes. Stir well and eat.
