high protein peanut noodles (a dump & bake recipe!)
After making many variations of this recipe weekly for the past few months, I've finally nailed the easiest, most delicious, and high-protein peanut noodles. It's a dump-and-bake recipe that's all mixed and cooked in the same pan and ready in 30 minutes. Easy to make and even easier to clean up!

Calories: 432kcal
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon red curry paste
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter creamy
- 2 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave or brown sugar
- 2 cups chicken bone broth
- ¼ c full fat coconut milk canned
- 2 packs uncooked ramen 6oz, just discard the sauce packet
- 8 eggs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a 9x13 casserole dish, whisk together 1 tablespoon red curry paste, 1 tablespoon peanut butter, 2 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, 2 cups chicken bone broth, and ¼ c full fat coconut milk.
- Remove the noodles from the 2 packs uncooked ramen and set them into the broth mixture in the pan. It's ok if they aren't submerged fully. They will likely stick out a ½". You can also toss in broccoli, bell peppers, or baby bok choy for some added fiber.
- Cover tightly with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and stir the noodles to get them fully submerged. The sauce will still be runny and that's good! Return to the oven for 5 minutes, then remove and crack the 8 eggs on top of the ramen in rows. Return to the oven to bake another 7-10 minutes or until the yolks are still runny but the whites are set.
- Serve up bowls with your favorite toppings!

Notes
Can I use gluten free noodles? Yup! These work fine, but will have a slightly less bake time so just keep an eye on them.
Storage: You can keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat on low to not over cook the eggs too much. You might need to add a little more broth to rehydrate the sauce.
Meal prep it: If you plan to eat this throughout the week, make it without the eggs and then reheat and top with freshly fried, poached, or hard boiled eggs. You can also eat these as cold peanut noodles, this way too, with hard-boiled eggs.
Add more protein: Try this with rotisserie chicken, salmon, or air fryer tofu.
