Combine 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth, 1/4 cup gluten-free tamari, 2 tbsp mirin, 1 tbsp white miso paste, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tsp toasted sesame oil in a large pot. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Gently lower 4 large eggs into boiling water. Cook for 6-7 minutes for jammy yolks, then immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Peel and halve the eggs for a perfect addition to your High Protein Gluten Free Ramen Noodles Meal Prep.

Cook 8 oz gluten-free brown rice ramen noodles according to package directions. Sauté 4 oz sliced shiitake mushrooms in a separate pan until tender. Briefly wilt 2 cups fresh spinach in the hot broth or a separate pan until just tender.

Divide the cooked 8 oz gluten-free brown rice ramen noodles, sliced 1 lb chicken, 4 oz shiitake mushrooms, and julienned 1 large carrot among 4 meal prep containers. Pour the hot umami broth over each portion. This ensures a delicious High Protein Gluten Free Ramen Noodles Meal Prep throughout the week.
