Something different with Ramen

Ramen Noodles are a staple of the college diet. They are so easy that anyone can make them. However, they get old, so every once in a while you can do something different with them.

What I usually like to do is make a marinade first in the morning before I leave or the night before, either in a gallon freezer bag, or some other container you have laying around and can cover. Take some vegetable oil, about half a cup, soy sauce, again, about a quarter of a cup, cut up a quarter of an onion, salt, pepper, and garlic powder and combine it in the bag and mix it up all together. You choose the meat....pork or chicken of your liking, or maybe even a beef cut like a chuck steak if you wanted.

Now, when dinner rolls around, take that out of the fridge. You can cook it whatever you like, be it on the grill or in a frying pan on top of the stove.

While the meat is cooking, take a package of Ramen, and simply follow the package instructions. It is that easy! Choose the flavor you want and let it cook until the noodles are tender. However, instead of using it as soup, drain the noodles, and place them on a plate and serve the meat over it once it is prepared.

This is a quick way to get a fast and filling dinner without any hassle at all.
