Growing up, we always had ramen--real ramen noodle soup, not the Maruchan cellophane packet ramen. But in college while budgets were tight, I became acquainted with the infamous packeted noodles. Here's one way I liked to jazz it up a bit! —skylinetothesea

I used one package of roman noodles (10oz) and found that it was too much compared to the veggies. I also used peanut oil instead of veggy oil and an extra clove of garlic. The flavor was great though and I will be making it again!! My recipe made 4 meals.

I made this dish for the whole family tonight and it was delicious. I had to modify it a bit for the picky mushroom eater in the household but that was as simple as removal from one bowl. The nice thing about this noodle dish is it was not in broth. The Ramen noodles never seem to stop absorbing then get overdone and fall apart. Thanks for sharing!
