High-Protein Creamy Egg Noodles

Ingredients

• 2 Hard-boiled eggs (Peeled; the recipe also suggests using 3 whole eggs as an alternative.)
• 1 Egg white (The recipe also suggests using 3 whole eggs instead of 2 eggs and 1 egg white.)
• 50 g Soba noodles
• 1 tsp Chili oil (A little more can be added at the end if desired.)
• 1 tbsp Soy sauce
• 2 tsp Rice vinegar
• 2.5 Garlic (The source specifies 2-3 cloves; peeled.)
• 1 tbsp Toasted sesame seeds
• 2.5 tbsp Scallions (The source specifies 2-3 tablespoons; chopped.)
• 1 cup Mushrooms (Sautéed without oil.)
• Water and salt (As needed; reserve some of the noodle cooking water.)

Steps

1. 1

   Cook the soba noodles in salted water. Drain when cooked and reserve some of the cooking water.

2. 2

   Add the 2 hard-boiled eggs, egg white, chili oil, garlic, salt, rice vinegar, and a little of the reserved noodle water to a blender. The source also suggests using 3 whole eggs as an alternative.

3. 3

   Blend until smooth and creamy.

4. 4

   Add the sauce to a bowl and place the cooked noodles on top.

5. 5

   Top with the sautéed mushrooms, toasted sesame seeds, and chopped scallions. The source also allows for using other roasted vegetables and leafy greens of your choice.

6. 6

   Adjust the consistency with a little more reserved water so the sauce coats the noodles well. Drizzle with additional chili oil if desired and mix well.
