Keep in mind, shelf-life will depend on the ingredients you use (e.g. tofu has shorter shelf life - see below). ► STEP 3: Remove mason jar from fridge and let jar come to room temperature for 15-20 minutes by resting on the counter, or run it under lukewarm water for a couple of minutes. This will help prevent the hot water from cooling down too quickly, and reduce risk of glass cracking. ► STEP 4: Boil 2 cups (500 ml) of water. ► STEP 5: Add boiling water to mason jar until ingredients are fully covered. Cover with lid. ► STEP 6: Let ingredients steep for 5 minutes until ingredients are softened. ► STEP 7: Remove the lid, squeeze lime wedge, give contents a stir to mix soup base, and enjoy! ► NOTE: You can enjoy the noodles straight out of the jar, or pour the jar contents into a bowl to enjoy. Warm it up in the microwave (using a microwave-safe bowl) for an extra minute or two if desired. ---- #1 - CHICKEN & VEGETABLE VERMICELLI NOODLE CUP (410 calories per cup) Soup Base: ► Bouillon paste or powder (2 tsp / 12 g) ► Soy sauce (1 tbsp / 15 ml) ► Garlic powder (1/2 tsp / 1.5 g) ► Sesame oil (1 tsp / 5 ml) Vegetables: ► Sliced carrots (1/4 cup / 32 g) ► Baby spinach (1/4 cup / 8 g) ► Corn (1/4 cup / 38 g) ► Sliced tomatoes (2 tbsp / 30 g) ► Sliced shiitake mushrooms (1/4 cup / 30 g) Protein: ► Shredded cooked chicken (1/3 cup / 46 g) Noodles: ► Vermicelli (dry rice noodles) (1 serving / 50 g) Garnishes: ► Sliced green onions (1 tbsp / 6 g) ► Chopped cilantro (1 tbsp / 0.5 g) ---- #2 - SPICY MISO TOFU UDON NOODLE CUP (462 calories per cup) NOTE: Cubed tofu has a short shelf-life (1-2 days) compared to other protein.
