Ramen Ideals on how to fix

[434Teresa]

I dont know if everyone found this on their inetnet home page so I thought I would share it..Ramen are cheap even free for some of us some of the time. After awhile they get old tho but here is a few ideals on what to do with them to make a nice cheap meal.


Veggie Ramen (pictured above) . Toss a tablespoon of butter into a skillet. Add 2 tablespoons each of thinly-sliced carrots, frozen green beans, frozen white corn, and edamame. Cook just until softened. Add a packet of Pork Ramen, 2 cups of water, and cook until the noodles are cooked through, about 6 minutes. Add seasoning packet. Serve and enjoy.

2. Egg Foo Ramen. In a small bowl, whisk an egg with 1 tablespoon of water until well beaten. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour egg into the water, then add the noodles. Cook just until tender. Season with seasoning packet. Garnish with sliced green onions.
3. Chinese Chicken Salad. Shred 1/4 a head of cabbage, 1 breast of chicken, and 1/4 white onion. Add 1 package of crushed Chicken-flavored Ramen. In a small bowl, whisk together the seasoning packet, 2 tablespoons of oil, 2 tablespoons of white vinegar, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Toss dressing into salad, serve and enjoy.

4. Ham Fried Ramen. A simple take on Fried Rice, cook a packet of Pork Ramen until the noodles are tender. Drain completely. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and 1 tablespoon olive oil until sizzling. Add 1/4 cup diced ham and 1/4 cup of frozen peas & carrots to the oil. Immediately toss in the noodles. Crack an egg into the mixture and stir until well cooked and distributed around the noodle mixture. Season with soy sauce, garnish with a handful of diced green onions.
5. Parmesan Ramen. Cook a packet of ramen noodles. Save the flavoring packet for another day. Once the noodles are cooked, drain the water from them completely. Top with a pat of butter, a bit of freshly-shredded parmesan, and some chopped parsley.

I read this article as well, ideas for Ramen.

Good for college students!!! Or those really on a very tight budget and needing to stretch their money but still get some good nutrition.

They definitely are delicious but so bad for us!! Two of my 3 girls like them but I only buy a few packs about once a year.

I saw a cookbook once that I think was titled 100 ways to prepare Ramen noodles. I remember suggesting it to my niece because she ate them constantly.

I would hate to know how many of those things I ate between the years I was about 18 - 21. BUNCHES!!! I loved them. Probably would still love them now. I remember a few times when I had one pack and it was so good I ate a 2nd one! How's that for bad???
