Healthy Teriyaki Noodles With Vegetables

Noodles are one of my favourite things to make when I want dinner on the table quickly. I’m talking in just 15-minutes quickly! One thing I love about this recipe for 15-Minute Teriyaki Noodles is that it’s really versatile.

I use brown rice noodles and bok choy in this recipe but you can really use anything you have on hand. Regular rice noodles, ramen noodles, spaghetti….it’ll all work!

You can also use any veggies you have on hand in place of the bok choy, and add and protein you like to this recipe. (Maybe use that pack of tofu sitting in your fridge?)

How to make this recipe

Start by cooking your noodles. While the noodles cook, prepare the sauce.

  • brown rice spaghetti noodles in a white pot

Then sautee the veggies in a pot until tender, then add the sauce to the pot, followed by the noodles and mix everything together.

  • A measuring cup of teriyaki sauce being poured into a white pot of bok choy
  • teriyaki noodles with bok choy in a white pot with a wood handle

Serve immediately!

How to make teriyaki sauce from scratch

Teriyaki sauce is really easy to make from scratch, and MUCH healthier than buying a pre-made teriyaki sauce.

You just need a salty element, (like tamari or soy sauce) a sweet element (coconut sugar, brown sugar), garlic and ginger. That’s it for the base of the sauce! Then you can add it something a little acidic (rice vinegar) or some spice (sriracha) if you like.

Tips for making this recipe perfectly

  • Depending on how accurate you measure the noodles and the brand of tamari or soy sauce you use, you may need to add a little more or less sauce to the noodles. Always taste and adjust as needed!
  • This recipe is extremely versatile. Use any noodles you like, add any veggies you like and even add any protein you like!
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in a pan with a splash of water or vegetable stock to loosen up the noodles.
