What We’re Cooking This Weekend: Vegan Yaki Udon
If you need to cook up a delicious dinner but you’re strapped for time, this noodle dish has got you covered. The best thing about this recipe is that you can adjust it to your own liking and clear out your fridge by adding whatever vegetables you have on hand to make it your own! For a lower-calorie meal, use fewer noodles and more veggies. For a high-protein meal, add some tofu or tempeh.
This Vegan Yaki Udon takes only 15-25 minutes, maybe 30 minutes maximum. Either way, you can have a delicious Yaki Udon ready in less than an hour, proving you don’t have to sacrifice flavor for simple and quick meals.
