How about a thread about things you can add to/do with ramen for a little variety? Because if you're like me, you are le poor and survive on the local grocer's "10 Ramen Blocks for 4 Dollars" special...;_;
When I don't want the soup flavouring packet added, I usually just add in some mixed veggies and some scrambly egg, for example. I also have a friend who makes cold casseroles with hers and it's pretty good. What do you do?
I found this website a while ago with instant ramen recepes, tried a few out and didn't like them except for one:
(this sounds really weird)
1) Cook BEEF ramen noodles until done (add the beef powder while cooking). Once it's done and beefy, drain all the water and put the noodles on a plate.
2) Add a few squirts of lemon juice, a spoonful of margarine/butter, and two spoonfulls of STRAWBERRY JAM. Yes. Jam. Stir it up.
3) Eat!!!
I know that sounds nasty, but the beef and the strawberry taste so good together, and the margarine and jam make it so creamy and good!
I'm a raw egg man myself.
You can also try some of that cheap imitation crab meat.
If by "block" you mean the cheap ass "Top Ramen" or something of the like, you're getting ripped off. I can get 10 packs for a buck.
Might want to try to find a better deal on that.
