Millet and Brown Rice Ramen Recipe: A Healthy Twist on a Classic Dish

Ramen is a beloved Japanese dish that has gained popularity worldwide. It's no surprise, given its comforting and flavorful broth, chewy noodles, and endless possibilities for toppings.

However, traditional ramen often contains wheat noodles and may not be suitable for those with gluten sensitivities or following a gluten-free diet.

Enter millet and brown rice ramen.

This recipe puts a healthy twist on the classic dish, using gluten-free noodles made from millet and brown rice.

Not only does this make it accessible for those with gluten sensitivities, but it also adds a nutty flavor and texture to the dish.
