Some days, you just don’t have the time to make a full on meal. You just want one pot to clean and for it to be done in less than 10 minutes. Introducing…the college kid’s meal: ramen.
I’m pretty sure instant ramen or noodles is a staple for every college kid. I ate my fair share back when I was a student. Although, I don’t know when the last time I had a bowl of instant ramen was. Perhaps that’s a sign that I’m growing up?
I added two ingredients to bulk up a simple dish. Do you have any tricks or special ingredients that you add to your instant ramen? I’d love to know!

do you actually cook the egg on the side first and then add or does the egg cook in the boiling water?
looks like great comfort food!

The eggs cooks in the boiling water, so just make sure to scramble the raw egg in a bowl prior to pouring it in!

As a recent college graduate myself, I can personally attest to the many virtues of instant ramen 😉 In all seriousness though, the egg, lean turkey and ramen combination sounds great.
Thank you for sharing!
