We hope to bring some new ideas to brighten up your working lunches in 2015!<\/p>\n<p>The first in this series comes from Clear Books graphic designer Sheila &#8211; enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Instant soup noodles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here is a recipe for making your own healthy instant noodles. This is a pretty easy recipe to whip up the night before or in the morning to take with you into the office for lunch &#8211; makes a good alternative to a cold sandwich for these winter months!<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll need:<br \/>\nA heat proof container<br \/>\n1 portion of vermicelli noodles<br \/>\nA small drizzle of olive oil<br \/>\n1 medium mushroom sliced<br \/>\n1 spring onion chopped<br \/>\n1 heaped tablespoon of peas<br \/>\n1 tomato, sliced<br \/>\nA sprinkle of bean sprouts<br \/>\n1\/4 teaspoon of onion powder<br \/>\n1\/4 cube of vegetable stock<br \/>\nA pinch of salt to taste<\/p>\n<p><strong>Instructions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Boil your noodles according to the instructions on the packet.<br \/>\n2. Once it&#8217;s done, drain it using a colander and run it under cold water to halt the cooking process. Drain away as much of the water as possible.<br \/>\n3. To stop it from clumping together when you are ready to it, mix in a splash of olive oil.<br \/>\n4. Place sliced mushroom, tomato, bean sprouts and peas in the bottom of the container.<br \/>\n5. Place noodles in container.<br \/>\n6. Add stock cube, onion powder, salt and spring onions to the top.<br \/>\n7. Close the lid and either put it in the fridge for the next day or take it with you to work.<br \/>\n8. Just add hot water when you are ready to eat it. Close the lid and wait for 1 minute, give it a stir and it&#8217;s done.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clearbooks.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/instant-noodles.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignnone wp-image-22187\" src=\"https:\/\/www.clearbooks.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/instant-noodles-600x337-custom.jpg\" alt=\"instant-noodles\" width=\"600\" height=\"337\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In keeping with the Clear Books slogan of \u2018Together We Save Time\u2019, we wanted to introduce a light-hearted new monthly feature to our blog and newsletter &#8211; a time-saving lunch recipe from a member of the Clear Books team.
