Ramen Bowls

• ramen Packets x 2
• 1/2 cup cremini mushrooms
• 1 handful large shrimp peeled and deveined
• 1/4 cup scallions
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 container vegetable broth
• 1/2 cup mirin
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 4 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1 red bell pepper sliced

1. Instead of cooking your ramen on a stovetop or in the microwave, we are going to use the oven. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and start prepping your pouches. I love this idea of cooking everything in the pouch because the steam is captured and adds more flavor to your ramen bowl. You'll want a layer of aluminum foil and a layer of parchment paper. Using the foil to form the "bowl", work with it until it resembles a bowl and the edges are all up and cupped over, leaving room to pour everything inside. I recommend doing this on a baking sheet, so you don't have to transfer it once all the goodness is inside. I made the mistake of doing that the first time and I was left with a huge mess.
2. Start by breaking up the ramen into chunks and divide evenly among the pouches. We made 2 large bowls out of this recipe but it could easily be divided into 4. On top of the noodles stack your shrimp, peppers, mushrooms, red pepper flakes, salt and scallions. In a separate bowl combine all your liquid ingredients and then distribute evenly between both pouches. Fold up your pouches so that a tiny opening is left to allow a bit of steam to escape.
3. Cook for 15 minutes and serve immediately in a bowl.
