Mason Jar Ramen Meal Prep with Coconut Turmeric and Miso

try this mason jar ramen meal prep for an easy and quick lunch. Mason jar ramen is customizable, so you can adjust the ingredients to suit your needs.

Mason Jar Ramen Meal Prep

The first thing you need to make mason jar ramen meal prep is good mason jars. 16-ounce mason jars work really well, but if you decide to supplement with more ingredients, you may want to use a larger jar.

My recipe preps three jars at 1x, so if you decide to double the recipe, you need at least 6 16-ounce mason jars.

Wide-mouth mason jars work best because of the way they are shaped. They are the easiest to eat out of.

Mason Jar Miso Ramen with Turmeric and Coconut

The main ingredient in my mason jar miso ramen is the flavor base made with miso, kimchi, turmeric, and coconut cream. When you add boiling water to the meal prep jar, the flavor base dissolves, forming a delicious, creamy broth.

Adding Protein to Meal Prep Ramen

This ramen is a light meal on its own. It’s essentially a healthy version of a cup of noodles that comes in that styrofoam container.

If you want to add more protein to this meal prep, use a bigger mason jar and add any cooked protein you like. Some great options include seared tofu and rotisserie chicken.

If you do decide to add meat, you should only store the ramen for five days in the fridge.

My favorite topic I teach in our online course is My favorite topic I teach in our online course is called Fermentation Variables. The whole lesson is centered around the fact that there are six main variables that influence the outcome of fermentation.

Here they are, in no particular order:

Sugar
Salt
Oxygen
Acidity
Temperature
Time

Temperature and time depend on each other most closely. 

that means, for all of our foods and drinks that ferment at room temp, things slow way down in the winter cold. 

The fermentation timeline is simply longer when it’s colder (and faster when it’s hotter). The microbes, kind of like us, make things happen slowly in the cold winter. 

I think this is yet another sign from nature that we’re supposed to rest and be gentle and gracious with deadlines, work, and not rush things this time of year. 

Let it be slow, it’ll still be great, it just takes a little more patience and time. 

If you’re looking to start fermentation as an analog hobby in the new year, our courses are 40% off right now! You can use code NEWYEARS at checkout. (Yes, you learn online, but it’s delicious, long form content + the skills are life long). What you learn empowers you to get off the computer/phone and go ferment some delicious foods and drinks. 

Touching cabbage and dough is just as good as “touching grass” lol 

Let me know if you have questions about our courses or just fermentation in general in the comments!

Yes cooking kills the microbes, but idc. I mean, I Yes cooking kills the microbes, but idc. I mean, I care, but in a “thank you for your service microbes” kinda way. 🫡

Cider braised pork and sauerkraut is a perfect choice for New Year’s or any winter meal! I lovvveee pairing it with butternut squash polenta bc it’s full of vitamin C for cold and flu szn. 

Eating pork and sauerkraut on New Year’s Day is a tradition. And I really do think it brings good luck and prosperity.

Get the recipe on our blog, linked in my profile and in story highlights! 

I’m really looking forward to creating more recipes like this in the new year, to show you all the joys of incorporating ferments into meals and recipes 😌✨ stay tuned!

For Christmas 2025, I tried something new with these cookies. I created a gingerbread sourdough starter to use in this recipe! I made it by feeding some of my established starter a mix that includes molasses and gingerbread spices. I just added the instructions for the gingerbread starter in the notes of my cookie recipe.
