101 Things To Do With Ramen

I'm very excited! I just got a new book, well four actually, but one of them is a cook book called 101 Things To Do With Ramen Noodles by Toni Patrick and it is exactly what it says.

Being a 21 year old who lives with my brother means that at meal times we pretty much have to fend for ourselves. Our parents are 30 miles away and while they occasionally bring us food, it tends to be more in the raw material form. Cooking is not something either of us had to do while growing up, we always had at least one helper and if they didn't cook then Mummy would. After we started to live on our own we realised that despite our affinity for it, cereal and milk would not quite cut it for breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday. That's where Ramen Noodles came into the picture. We could have it for lunch and dinner...kidding. But only slightly, we do eat a lot of Ramen Noodles.

This book I had seen at Bookland (a local bookstore) quite a while back but somehow whenever I went back they didn't seem to have it. I paid a visit there today and was looking at 101 Things To Do With Cake Mix and there was the Ramen Noodle book hidden behind it. I picked it up and decided to buy it.

While flipping through the recipes I found one for Cheesy Ranch Ramen that caught my eye. I knew we had all the ingredients at home which meant saving me a trip to the supermarket and it sounded easy and delicious. I still ended up going to the supermarket to buy other random things and guess what, they had a special on Ramen Noodles. I figured since I have this book now I might as well stock up on the noodles and so my cupboard is now full of it. I don't have near 101 packs of it though so I'm sure I'll exhaust my stash in no time.
