Creamy Mushroom Ramen

Creamy Mushroom Ramen

Think Cream of Mushroom Soup meets Ramen Bowl! This soup if full of Mushroom flavor and of meaty Mushrooms. I added Baby Bok Choy for color and crunch but feel free to add any other veggies. Simple to make and really delicious. Enough for two hungry people or four if you decide to share with friends or family :)

Serves 2 - 4
