Ramen Is In Fact A Food Staple

Yes, ramen is food. It is a staple in my home. It is eaten frequently and without complaint. Ramen has become a sort of hipster food that we've become accustomed to when we go out to eat, but when we discuss eating it at home it becomes this irradiated trash food that we're just not supposed to touch because somehow it's going to give us all cancer. I have neither the time nor the money to care that someone thinks I'm eating gamma radiation, I just want to put calories in my belly. The great thing about ramen is that it is versatile. It can be eaten just the way it came, with the salty seasonings packets, or you can add as much or as little to those noodley packages of goodness as you'd like. At $0.25 per package, the base of the meal for two people at four packages is $1.00. I added a simple Chinese chicken broth, and 5 eggs at a total of $0.60. I spent $1.60 for this meal. Ramen is a staple, don't be ashamed to fill your belly.

Chinese Broth Ramen With Egg:

4 pkg of ramen (any type, as you're only using the noodles)
6 cups water
6 teaspoons Knorr chicken flavor bouillon
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
5 eggs

In a round frying pan use nonstick spray to grease the pan. Put all five eggs in the pan. Fry them till they're ready to turn over. Flip them over and break the yokes. Put aside. In large pot boil water, bouillon, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and ground ginger. When water is boiling toss in noodles. Boil for three minutes. Dish into large bowls. Cut eggs in half and serve on top.
