I will admit that I have had tons of hangovers in my life and the older I get, the more prone to them I am. Getting older isn’t your friend when it comes to processing alcohol. No shame in admitting that I love to cut loose and a couple drinks can turn into many (many) more. Oh well, it was fun, until the next morning when I feel like death warmed over.
Ingredients In Easy Ramen Noodle Bowl
Let’s face it when you’re not feeling your best, fast and easy is the only kind of meal that sounds appealing. For this easy hangover helper ramen, you’ll need:
Eggs Vegetable broth White miso or soy sauce Ramen noodles Carrots Green onions Sriracha, optional
Being by soft-boiling the eggs, and while they’re cooking, combine together the vegetable broth, miso, soy sauce, dry ramen noodles with the seasoning packet discarded until the noodles are soft. Peel and halve the eggs, add in sliced carrots, and top with green onions and optional sriracha. Super fast and easy!
What To Do For A Hangover
I have tried running, hot yoga to sweat it out, Tylenol, aspirin, Gatorade, tons of water, coffee, drinking a bloody Mary, those hangover pills they sell at gas stations, you name it, but nothing really works very well other than time. And getting lots of water and some food into my system like this light yet comforting ramen bowl. It’s perfect for helping you feel a bit more like yourself. Not saying it will cure your hangover but it can help. It’s easy and ready in 10 minutes because when you’re hungover, anything complicated in the kitchen isn’t happening. If you have leftover chicken on hand, it’s a nice addition.
Why Will This Help My Hangover?
There’s protein from the eggs, salty and warm miso-based broth that tastes especially good after the dehydrating effects of alcohol. And drippy, soft-boiled eggs like this are my total thing. There are a few veggies for flavor and texture but nothing too heavy for your (queasy) stomach. If you don’t have miso on hand, you can omit it and add a bit extra soy sauce.
Great For Colds, Flus, and Light Meals
You don’t just have to have a hangover to make this! It’s a perfect vegetarian lunch or light yet satisfying meatless dinner. I made this recipe when I was struggling through a winter cold and cough and it was perfect. And then somehow this recipe got pushed to the back burner of my publishing schedule but it’s likely perfect for New Year’s Day.
