These broccoli and egg noodles sort out lunch for two in a single pan, without juggling a bunch of utensils. I make them with rice noodles, carrot, and leek, along with the broccoli, plus a splash of tamari for that savory depth I love so much. A simple recipe to shake up your everyday meal routine.

The combination works because the broth infuses the noodles with flavor while the egg brings the whole dish together without needing tons of ingredients. If you're looking for vegetable and egg noodles for a quick weeknight meal, this version takes just 10 minutes of prep and 12 minutes of cooking. I'd keep the saltiness of your broth in mind before adding the tamari so it doesn't end up overly salty.

Frequently asked questions

How do I store leftover broccoli and egg noodles?

Store them in an airtight container in the fridge within two hours, and eat them within 1-2 days. To reheat, add a little splash of water or broth and heat everything through; the noodles may end up slightly softer.

Is this broccoli noodle recipe gluten-free?

It can be if you use rice noodles, tamari, and broth that are certified gluten-free. Check your garlic powder too, and be careful with cross-contamination if cooking for someone with celiac disease.

Can I swap the rice noodles for wheat noodles?

Yes, but they may need a different cooking time and liquid amount. Follow the package instructions and, if they require cooking separately, boil them before adding to the pan.
