Ramen Noodles Done Right

You can't say you're poor if you haven't eaten ramen noodles. Let's face it, their cheap! Usually you can find a 5 pack at the dollar tree. It's also the main staple food for all college students. So if you're like me and currently living on these then lets me tell you some ways to add some bling to them and make them tastier.

Veggies! This is the easiest addition to add flavor and a few vitamins. Frozen veggies work great or even canned. I prefer adding corn and peas to mine.

Eggs! The way I do it is to scramble an egg in a bowl and when the noodles are almost done, pour the raw egg into the noodles and broth while stirring. It makes like and egg drop soup. Also I've seen people add fried eggs, boiled eggs, and even poached eggs to their. However why would you take the time to poach an egg to add to unhealthy noodles?

Meat! It's a great way to get rid of some leftovers. You can take something like leftover roast and dice it up and stir it in. Some people precook ground beef and freeze it. You could easily add some. Of even a leftover hamburger tastes great.

Quick Chicken Noodle Soup Add cooked or canned chicken, shredded cabbage, diced carrots, peas, and chicken flavored noodles to a pot of boiling water. Cook 3 minutes, mix in flavoring and done.

Chili Cheese Noodles Cook the noodles and drain. Place on a plate or in a bowl and top with canned chili and cheese. Sounds gross but it's great and really bad for your heart. lol

Salads! Crush the noodles and add them to your favorite salad for a little crunch.

Greek Salad Over boiled noodles, place 1 cup chopped bell pepper, 1 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1 cup chopped onion, diced tomatoes, green and black olives. Mix 1 cup canola oil with 1 cup lemon juice and pour over salad.

Tex Mex Ramen Brown 1 pound ground beef and drain. Stir in 1 packet of taco seasoning mix, diced tomatoes, chopped onion and boiled ramen noodles. Cover with shredded cheese and crushed Doritos.
