I normally start with hot sauce, butter, and mustard in mine.

Putting boiling water in it for once instead of eating it dry :3

It’s so hard to swallow the boiling water though, my throat keeps burning.

Step 1: Put water in the kettle

Step 2: Click the little button

Step 3: Open your noodles, and put them in the bowl, along with the spices, vegetables and oil

Step 4: Once the kettle turns off pour the water onto the noodles till it covers about half

Step 5: Put a plate over the bowl and wait about 4 minutes

I didn’t do step one, so at step 4 fire came out instead of water. Why do my noodles taste weird?

Make the ramen as normal but once the noods are cooked crack an egg, add some mayo, then stir it all up. It adds great flavor and makes the meal more filling.

I’m guilty of throwing a drizzle of mayo on top of the Ramen right before serving. That and toss on some sesame seeds. Amazing.

Frozen veggies so I feel like it’s a real meal.

Fire-roasted corn is a fave, then usually peas and carrots, and the weird one I found: frozen okra. It seemed wrong but I had some on hand and figured why not? Turns out I like it a lot! It also thickens the broth just a bit in a good way.

okra is totally underrated.

My parents briefly hired a private chef. She used (frozen) okra in ways I never expected and it’s what made me always keep a bag on hand.

The best was oven-roasted veggies with beets and asparagus (fresh) plus okra and fire-roasted corn (frozen). Nothing else, not even seasoning, and it was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten.

She also used it in salads! I questioned it until I tried it, and then I was sold.

Sliced up fish cake or sausage, seaweed snacks and pickled mustard greens are my go to. When I want something spicy, and I usually do, I grab a block of hot pot seasoning I keep in the freezer and cut off a piece to melt in the broth.
