Rainbow Rice Noodle Bowls

Rainbow rice noodle bowls packed with colorful veggies, edamame, and gluten-free rice noodles with an oil-free creamy miso tahini dressing.

OK, it’s officially one week post-Thanksgiving world!

Have you finally finished off your mountains of leftovers?

Are you craving the rainbow now?

Before the countdown to Christmas dinner begins, I wanted to share a colorful light dish that has healing gut superpowers!

Yes, superpowers!

These Rainbow Rice Noodle Bowls are the perfect meal to munch on this December between heavier holiday feasts.

Have you tried miso yet?

A few years back, the only miso in my diet was the steaming miso soup Dan and I got at the Japanese steakhouse where we had our first date.

Actually, the only probiotic in my diet at all was yogurt.

Boooooring.

Now, all fermented foods are my jam, miso included!

Miso, along with all fermented food, increase the amount of good bacteria existing in your gut.

It has a satisfying salty flavor that works perfectly in sauces in dressings to add to your meals.

This dressing is salty, sweet, and thick, and pairs perfectly with tender-crisp veggies without any added oils!

I’ve been hearing more and more that the foundations of health originate in the gut, so let’s do some preventative care together and load up on colorful veggies dressed up in creamy miso tahini.

‘Tis the season!

What You Need to Make Rainbow Rice Noodle Bowls

Here’s what you need to make the rice noodle bowl: 

• Eden Foods Bifun (Rice Pasta)
• edamame
• avocado oil
• bell pepper
• carrots
• broccoli

And here’s what you need for the dressing: 

• Eden Foods Shiro Miso
•  tahini
• maple syrup (optional)
• lemon juice
• garlic powder

That’s it!

How to Make Rainbow Rice Noodle Bowls

Make the Miso Tahini dressing by combing all dressing ingredients in a high speed blender and pulsing into smooth.

It should be creamy and pourable.

If it’s too thick, add a little more filtered water to thin out.

Set aside and refrigerate until ready for use.

Prepare the Bifun (Rice Pasta) according to package instructions. Rinse, drain, and set aside in the same pot or a large mixing bowl.

Wash, chop, and julienne all vegetables. If serving raw, skip the next step.

If you want your bowl served warm, heat a large pan over medium high heat and spray with a bit of avocado oil.

Once it’s warm, add the broccoli florets, diced red pepper, and julienned carrot.

Heat until veggies start to soften, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

You want the veggies to be slightly crunchy and not overcooked.

Add the cooked or raw veggies to the rice noodle bowl along with the cooked edamame.

Pour the Miso Tahini dressing over the bowl and toss to combine.

Serve your bowl immediately with sliced avocado, green onion, and white sesame seeds.

Eden Foods Bifun Rice Noodles 

I did an impromptu poll on Instagram while creating these bowls to ask if you guys preferred rice noodles or soba.

Most of you said rice noodles!

I was secretly happy that you did because this was my first time experimenting with them.

I love how light Eden Foods Bifun is and how quickly it cooks.

These slender pearly noodles are fun to throw in stir-fries and pan-dishes for extra protein and texture.

If you don’t have rice noodles, try using Soba Noodles or sub your favorite noodle instead.

How to Serve Rainbow Rice Noodle Bowls 

For serving, I love:

• avocado
• green onion
• white sesame seeds
• fresh cilantro

Enjoy these Rainbow Rice Noodles Bowls as a light lunch, dinner, or anytime you’re craving the rainbow.

You can serve the dish chilled or warm right after heating.

You can also skip cooking the veggies altogether for even more crunch!

If you’re refrigerating the rainbow bowls for later, be sure to store the dressing and rainbow noodles later to prevent the dish from getting soggy.

I love mine with all of the avocado, cilantro, and sesame seeds!

Enjoy!
