Old man moment: I went to check out the prices on the cheap ramen recently so I could try out some of the recipes here on TH-cam, and I couldn't believe my eyes. Now here's the old man moment... Staring dumbfounded at the price, I said aloud, "I can remember when these things were only eleven cents!"

OLD MAN ALERT! < Bwaaaah! > I remember finding a quarter when I was in 6th grade and trying to decide between buying a McDonald's hamburger or getting a DC giant size comic book. This was back when McDonald's used to run a commercial about buying a meal deal of a hamburger, fries, and a soda for a dollar and getting change back. Ask your dad if he remembers that. (BTW I chose the comic book because I could keep it to enjoy for years, reading it again and again, but the hamburger would only last for a couple of minutes. I was a nerd and comic book geek even way back then. Lol!)
This is fantastic and should be reshown from time to time, these are delicious and very frugal. Plus the fact that you can add in anything in the fridge including proteins meats and eggs. The ideas are Neverending.
I always have grr n onion growing on my kitchen window sill. I take the root left over from green onion and either put it in water or soil and they grow back. I also add hard boiled eggs and snow peas to ramen.
I add a fresh chopped potato carrots broccoli and garlic with the water and the seasoning packet then I pour that over the Ramen and let it sit for a few minutes. Dinner!
Really like all of your recipes. I make my own recipe by using the ramen noodles and the seasoning packet plus I'll add either a chicken bouillon Cube or a beef bouillon Cube depending on if I'm using chicken packets or beef packets. Then when it's about ready I will add frozen shrimp and frozen veggies like carrots broccoli or any other veggies I have on hand. But I love it it's very filling and very fast and something hot that tastes so good it's like eating soup. You also have a new subscriber.
A packet of Ramen noodles is super handy when traveling because you can make it in your hotel/motel room in/with the kettle. Great when you’ve traveled to a different time zone and you wake up starving before/after food outlets are open.
I keep a bag of frozen oriental veggies handy and add them to the boiling water to cook. Quick, easy, delicious. Add any leftover chicken or shrimp and dinner is done! Will have to try that egg trick. Yum!
I like ramen so I eat it on the regular. My favorite is what I call fake pho that sounds a lot like your stir fry beef. I use minced onion and 1/3 the flavor packet (I started doing this for less salt 40 years ago, now it's just a habit!) and enough water to almost the top of the noodles. I cover and microwave for 90 seconds. While that is going, I slice up a couple of regular lunch meat roast beef pieces. At the ding, I turn over the ramen with a fork, put the beef on and I add cashews. They're not in pho, I just like the hit of flavor. I then cover again and do another 90 seconds. I do this with ham lunch meat too. One can add veggies too. Anything that will steam in 3 minutes will be done by the end. Broccoli, edamame or asparagus would be my choices.
@@AngieWy be aware.. still tons of sodium. they do make "lower" sodium ramen.. still really salty. If you're really in need of low, they do make no sodium bouillon.. make rice with that. Or get some other kind of noodles. I once found some really tasty low salt noodles at trader joe's.
i use prediced jared onion an garlic minced when it comes to cooking plus i can use some of the juice from each to what im cooking an then add bottled water to replace what i used
This is my favorite video of yours! Thank you so much. I am making the beef stirfry for the 3rd time :-) I added cabbage and carrots to bump up the veggie factor, and it is dynamite. FYI, Aldi ginger paste in the tube works very well for me ;-)
Put a twist of citrus 🍊 juice, protein, vegetables and you have a complete meal. E.g. coconut milk, lime juice, peanut butter and scallions makes a mock Tai version!
I buy a knob of ginger and grate off what I need and wrap the rest in plastic and freeze it. Next time I need it I just grate it frozen. A hunk of ginger will last me for months. I don't peel it either.
1 pack or ramen noodles . i pound hamburger , cooked and drained , pasta sauce .... cook noodles , add hamburger and sauce . an easy quick good meal . add onions or peppers if you want to .
I don't think we have Ramen in the UK at least I have never seen it. We do have supernoodles which looks the same but they are expensive and could probably get 1kg of rice or pasta or noodles without the flavour packet for the same price. If I do eat it ismrs in a sandwich between white bread with real butter. Yummy.
We have ramen noodles - you can get them for about £1 for 4 packets in the likes of Aldi (Maggi brand), or around 29p a packet at present in Home Bargains and such. SuperNoodles are just the more expensive, branded version (made by Batchelors, maybe?) I never use those “flavour” packets you get with them (should be prosecuted under the Trades Descriptions Act…) but make my own broth - tons of recipes on the web - then add veg, shredded meat, egg, maybe a few sesame seeds on top to look nice. Makes a lovely Saturday night supper while watching Ant & Dec!
For me I would want to cut those noodles to help them mix better,I would add bell peppers or peas,or frozen vegetables,but that’s me,or spinach, or chopped kale
In my family, we break up the noodles prior to boiling. I offered my sister what I made from ramen back then (add cooked chopped veg and browned hamburg to the soup) and she said, No! That'll be too salty and disgusting! She tried it and loved it. *sigh*
Have you done a video on meals made using eggs ? Egg Drop Soup Egg Breakfast Casserole Egg Salad Sandwiches Omelets Egg & Sausage Wraps with sautéed Peppers
I have 5 eggs left but when I went to Walmart eggs were $1.68/ dozen so I picked up two more and will be making the recipes I mentioned during the next two weeks freezing what I can
@@blessedhappycatlady lol obviously she must call for take out food or has a chef. Or lots of money for high priced ingredients. I guess she doesn't have to live on a budget as for the rest of us we're thankful for any budget-friendly recipes that could feed a family
Have you tried stirring in a cup+ of broccoli in these dishes? Some bell pepper will also add some color to the dish as well as veggies. Thanks for the recipes.
I lived in So Korea for a few years. Ramen there is a amazing meal. I also had Ramen in Japan. Ramen is an art form in both places. A protein is added. Usually egg. Veggies. spices. This idea of boiling the noodles and adding the sauce packet.. and done.. is a very Americanized version of ramen.
In the USA there are ramen restaurants that treat ramen as an art but for most Americans it's just a way to eat protein & veggies with carbs. Shin Ramyun is the best balance of taste, price, and health with added egg & veggies. It's worth the extra cost.
I haven’t bought ramen noodles forever because of the MSG and such high sodium content, but now with these wonderful recipes, I’m going try them! They look so delicious and easy to make! Thanks for sharing 😋
I made the first one, and it was good! My kids liked it too. I would double the sauce portion of the recipe. I didn't use the everything bagel on top cause I didn't have any on hand. But I'm going to use it next time, cause after tasting it, I can tell it would go really well with it. I did three ramens and I think 5 eggs. This served 3 people for $3.26 (1.09 per person ) Although the prices of food is going up, at least we can still be thankful there are still ways to eat cheap. 😊
Looks great! I buy a pound of fresh ginger at a time and immediatly freeze it. Then I take it out and use my microplane to grate it while still frozen. so good and no waste.
This kind of cheap ramen needs a health warning on the packet. Aside from the huge salt content (in both the seasoning packet and the Raman itself), there is the worst kind of cheap oil, the lack of any useful nutritional value and last but not least the TBHQ. Ramen noodles are particularly unhealthy because they contain a food additive called Tertiary-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ), a preservative that is a petroleum industry byproduct. Use pasta or fresh noodles instead. It may be a little bit more expensive and take a little longer to prepare, but you are doing your health a favour.
Maria you are awesome at picking recipes! We would especially love the 2nd and 3rd recipes. Its great you offer different foods to your kids. Expand those palettes now. 😋 Thank you so much and have a blessed week! 💖
I don't know where you have been all my life, found you today, I'm a ramen fan, my husband isn't, but now that I have your recipes maybe he'll try it. Subscribed. Enjoyed this video.
Try a stir fry (with more onion, bell peppers carrots, cab, spinach, green onion, etc.), and then add in the cooked/strained noodles. Add in your soy/brown sugar garlic sauce, and a little sesame oil (optional).
lol I've been using this style of recipe for decades. So versatile and adaptable to what you have in your cupboard. Glad to see I'm not alone. great ideas Maria. I really like the fact that you explained the egg thickening the broth and adding to the overall flavour (brit) Nice work :-)
Just told my sister about you!! I’m 76 and she is 71. She had six kids and I only had one but we made similar recipes to feed our families…I don’t want you feel bad for me but I WISH I could give you so many kitchen things…I’d drive them over to you but California is a little far away!! I have 7 Le Creuset and I gave her two of my bigger ones yesterday…don’t ask me how many dishes etc. I have! Not bragging it’s just appalling how many things one accumulates and then no longer use!!
I misuse ramen all the time, I dont use the sodium heavy flavor packets, I use herbox bullions and dash seasonings among others, I will occasionally cheat and use packaged taco seasoning, taco ramen is an easy one, another is a philly ramen using shaved steak or steakums, peppers, onions and cheese, cheesy ramen with tuna or browned ground beef, take it BBQ with pulled pork and your fav bbq sauce or dice up left over pork chops etc.. ramen carbonara with bacon or just a butter and garlic with parmesan maybe some shredded chicken
Hi. I am watching your video. If I can add to a recipe (one we eat at home): boil your water. Add your flavorings (here we keep it simple & use maggi chicken powder). After the water is in a rolling boil (you can add frozen veggies, onions etc @ this point) you drop in your noodles. Move them around so they are somewhat separated. Then crack how many eggs you want into the pot. Don't mix the egg up. When the yoke looks about done, take it off the heat and let sit for a few mins to settle. Garnish as desired. This is a soup. It's pretty filling. We have also used other types of pasta, too. I have to try the first recipe you presented. It looks really good.
"Swirl them up... just swirl em up"😅🤣😅how adorable are your babies?? Omg... so sweet!! Love these recipes! My son is a ramen freak... gonna try these out!! Thanks momma...I really love your videos!❤
You chop fresh garlic because there's a thing in it that disappears, is destroyed when you chop it and put it in a jar. Sorry I'm 80 and I just don't remember the name of it. It makes a huge difference in the taste of the garlic. Only way you can get it is if you chop your garlic fresh.
Fantastic recipe! I love your style of presentation. Informative and interesting to watch! I have a weird question. Do you get food all over your camera/or phone when you film. I make cooking videos too and I’m always getting food all over my phone. Any tips from one cooking creator to another? I’d love to learn from each other.
Wow! Where have you been all of my life?? Just teasing but thanks for these recipes…so simple but for some reason never thought of improving a pkg of ramen…have even felt a little guilty for fixing and eating such “college” food…no longer!!😘😘
On occasion, these are OK because they are economical, handy, and tasty when prepared with ingredients you like. The bad side is, they are highly processed and not healthy for your body.
Keep in mind, this is the food reality for a lot of low income families. I have such a craving for a fresh salad and some fruit, but food prices in Canada are astronomical.

Too funny 😂
Yes!!!
My dad said a snickers candy bar was 5 cents when he was a kid. And that it was HUGE lol 😆
@@christinastewart4893
The cheapest I remember candy bars like Snickers (I preferred Nestlé's Crunch) being is ten cents. But your dad is right - they were HUGE compared to today's candy bars (larger than today's so-called "giant size" candy bars).

I remember finding a quarter when I was in 6th grade and trying to decide between buying a McDonald's hamburger or getting a DC giant size comic book.
This was back when McDonald's used to run a commercial about buying a meal deal of a hamburger, fries, and a soda for a dollar and getting change back.
Ask your dad if he remembers that.
(BTW I chose the comic book because I could keep it to enjoy for years, reading it again and again, but the hamburger would only last for a couple of minutes. I was a nerd and comic book geek even way back then. Lol!)
My dad tells me he pumped gas at a full service station for 35 cents a gallon. Granted, that would have been 60 years ago.
This is fantastic and should be reshown from time to time, these are delicious and very frugal. Plus the fact that you can add in anything in the fridge including proteins meats and eggs. The ideas are Neverending.

I finally started doing that!
@@MealsWithMaria They don’t really grow back as nice as they are when you buy them but hey free food.
They need time
I have them outside in large pot
They grow back over and over and are big and sturdy
I remember when they came out I still use them.
I ❤️ your twist on the common ramen recipes.
😀 so glad you enjoy them!

I buy the frozen chopped ginger in the Trader Joe's freezer section. Makes it super cheap and easy way to use ginger.
That first way is the only way I like my ramen nowadays!! It’s so delish!

A packet of Ramen noodles is super handy when traveling because you can make it in your hotel/motel room in/with the kettle. Great when you’ve traveled to a different time zone and you wake up starving before/after food outlets are open.

Nice fireplace
All your Ramen noodle dishes are amazing too with a few chopped peanuts over top if u have em on hand

I totally need to do that!!!
Some shredded cabbage would be a nice addtion.
You mentioned that you are sick of spaghetti and meatballs. Try meatloaf and sloppy joes 😋. Great video.
I use to turn them into meals. If its chicken I would add chicken and a veggie of some kind. Make a stir fry. These are good ideas.
Great idea! Love it!
Definitely gonna try these!
Yay!
These look very good! Thanks 👍😊
1 pack or ramen noodles . i pound hamburger , cooked and drained , pasta sauce .... cook noodles , add hamburger and sauce . an easy quick good meal . add onions or peppers if you want to .
Those Raman noodles look great note to self pick up Raman noodles for the pantry I have lots of cup of noodles but not much in the Raman bricks.
Yah! It’s like a totally different thing!
Thanks for more ideas.
You’re welcome!
while waiting for ramen to cook, i put grated cheese in the bottom of my bowl. it's very good.
Yum! I love this idea!
Eat an egg drizzle it into the ramen while you're stirring it and serve it over spinach leaves. Absolutely delicious
Sorry that was beat the egg
I find that by cooking noodles only half way done is much better
The second recipe I would add sour cream at the end. Yumm
Yum 😍
Delicious ideas!
Thank you!
I would add some different types of veggies to these
Wow
one package of these cost now 0.50€ in germany

I do this but make it a full meal by adding a can of chicken and a few handfuls of mixed veggies
This would be great with a bag of frozen broccoli from Aldi.
In your second dish chopped cabbage would be good in it

I completely agree. I would also say, poor cooking skills, if you are going to ramp up a package of instant Roman noodles than do it right..
I use Ramen Noodles in my stir-fries. People make fun of using them but hey just as good as pasta and less expensive usually.
Absolutely!!
And they cook a lot faster when you don't have the time . LOL 😂
I’ve made many stir fry with the noodles.

Wish Ramen noodles were diabetic friendly.
peel the ginger first then its easy to grate from the freezer

You should! I’ve already gone back!
I buy it already chopped up. Fresh, chopped garlic comes in 3 different size jars. Having this in my fridge means I am ready for any recipe.

It’s just a cheap alternative I’m sure she doesn’t eat it all the time.
I put green onions and red pepper flakes and some Sesame oil. Yummy! If you put the roots of green onion in dirt they grow back fast.
Yum!

All in moderation 😀
In prison adding to Raman noodles to make a good meal is called making 'a spread'.
I would have used 3-4 ramen and more vegetables.
lime juice and chopped peanuts on top?
Yum! Yes! Do it!
You chop fresh garlic because there's a thing in it that disappears, is destroyed when you chop it and put it in a jar. Sorry I'm 80 and I just don't remember the name of it. It makes a huge difference in the taste of the garlic. Only way you can get it is if you chop your garlic fresh.
I think it makes a difference for sure!
Chicken ramen, two eggs, bok choy, and sirachi. Thanks for sharing.
Yummm
Fantastic recipe! I love your style of presentation. Informative and interesting to watch! I have a weird question. Do you get food all over your camera/or phone when you film. I make cooking videos too and I’m always getting food all over my phone. Any tips from one cooking creator to another? I’d love to learn from each other.

Another unhealthy food fad: Ramen noodles. High carb and high sodium. I don't understand the fad except that it takes almost no work to make them.
Definitely not an everyday food 😊
It all looks so good! Something I do to too ramen that is really good is add some black pepper and Kraft cheese slice and it is delicious
Oh interesting!!
I agree cheese is delicious in Ramen. Also, I like to make it with chili,and cheese. 🌿
Chili crisp and green onions. Love ramen.
Yummm
Wow! Where have you been all of my life?? Just teasing but thanks for these recipes…so simple but for some reason never thought of improving a pkg of ramen…have even felt a little guilty for fixing and eating such “college” food…no longer!!😘😘
😀 I’m so glad you like the recipes Gail!! Enjoy! And never feel guilty 😉
Thanks for the new ways to use ramen noodles. I can’t wait to try these recipes. 🍜
You’re welcome! Enjoy!
UNI-TASKER! A garlic press is a uni-tasker...
Ah yes!
On occasion, these are OK because they are economical, handy, and tasty when prepared with ingredients you like. The bad side is, they are highly processed and not healthy for your body.
All about balance 😀
Yup cancer causing cheap meals...
Keep in mind, this is the food reality for a lot of low income families. I have such a craving for a fresh salad and some fruit, but food prices in Canada are astronomical.
@@eskimokiss9907 when the choice is between feeding hungry children and worrying about cancer - hungry kids win. $9 for a watermelon $4 for a small head of lettuce...sometimes this is the only choice.
