Every so often my husband asks me "when are we gonna have Ramen Week?"
Ugh....
He is 10 years older than me and grew up in a house without ramen noodles. Nor was he a starving college student thriving on the 10-cent-a-pack meal marvel. I imagine his first taste of those fatty noodles was long after marriage.
Anyway, he craves them so I must treat him at least once a year.
So, you guessed it....this is Ramen Week!!
I try to jazz them up a bit with meat and vegetables mixed in, sort of like a chinese noodle dish.
Tonight we'll be doing the pork version....can't wait....

Bless your heart! :o) Many a student went through school surviving on those noodles! :o) I know I ate my fair share while living on my own in the younger years. :o)
I like to crack an egg over the seasoned noodles right before I take them out of the pot. It poaches it and is yu-mmy!

had to laugh when I read your post. :o) Those days when I worked part time, went to school full time, all while living in my 1st apartment were my skinniest days. I would walk down to the grocery and buy a week's worth of Ramen and Dr. Pepper for about $10. The only time I had a decent meal was when my future-husband took me out on a date. I accepted everytime! LOL Enjoy your week. Maybe add some grilled chicken? ;o)
It's not so bad, Jenn! They have a good taste if you don't overcook them, and they are yummy in a vegetable stirfry! Or, that chinese cabbage slaw. Let me know if you want my recipes....
:-}pokey
