My husband (then boyfriend at the time) proposed to me the day I returned from the local BJs Wholesaler with three pallets of Ramen Noodle (Chicken and Shrimp flavor) for him. He was living on a very limited budget, and Ramen was the staple of his diet.

Used to LOVE this stuff when I was a young lass myself, but sadly, the high sodium, high fat food groups no longer work for me. Back when I had the metabolism for them, I used to LOVE throwing a slab of velveeta in the noodle, hot water mix as it was "cooking". By the time the soup was suitably softened, the cheese had added another layer of sodium and goo. OH MAN! Couple that with a Cherry Coke, and them's good eating!

After living on ramen noodles for years, I came up with this recipe for ramen chili as a change of pace:

3 packages ramen noodles, any flavor
large can of Bush's extra hot chili beans
mexican powder
pepper
green peppers and onions if desired
jalapenos
tobasco
a pile of ground beef

Brown ground beef. Drain. Or don't, I don't care.
Add can of chili beans, and 3/4 can of water.
Add pepper and a bunch of the mexican powder, stir.
Add onions and green peppers if you must. Definitely add the jalapenos and tobasco.
After it has boiled a while, throw out the ramen noodles. Or save for next time you make ramen chili.

Serve and eat.
And be happy you're not having ramen noodles again.
