Allah SWT says in surah Al-Baqarah verse 168.

"O people, eat from the halal and good food found on earth, and do not follow the steps of the devil. Indeed the devil is a real enemy for you. (QS. Al-Baqarah: 168).

Allah who is most generous knows what is best for his servants. Allah has provided halal food on earth. So, why do we destroy it.

Second, because the ingredients in instant noodles are difficult to digest, balance them by consuming enough fiber.

When I usually when I'm at home want to make noodles, I usually add fried onions. Then usually every bowl of my noodles is full of vegetables. That's one way that we can provide fiber in the noodles. Or there are some who add tomatoes too, yes, or chilies. It is also one of the sources of enzymes and fiber which are quite good when we consume noodles.

If you want to add protein is it ok?
Can. For example, you want to add eggs, but of course good eggs too, healthy eggs, hygienic eggs. Because many also end up having excessive carbohydrates, plus the fried eggs, finally more oil comes in.

So, try to cook the eggs without using oil.

So, many are getting creative in making noodles from healthier ingredients. For example from vegetables, fruit, or tubers.

Ideally, the ingredients don't use gluten or wheat flour. So, we know quite a lot of non- gluten now, like noodles from dragon fruit, noodles from moringa leaves, or noodles from tubers are also quite a lot now circulating in society.

Noodles are a practical food, if you are in a pinch, noodles are often used as a hunger quencher. But from now let's be creative with healthy noodles. If it's possible, it's made from non-wheat flour.

Greetings always compact.
