I am currently in college, living off campus in a shared living arrangement with several other college students. As luck would have it, we all come from middle income families, so there are few very options when it comes to making meals. Ramen noodles are a staple in our shared college crib, so I was wondering if you had any ideas on how to "spice" them up a bit." Ramen noodles have been a staple for so many families, especially those with kids and a stringent grocery shopping budget. They are also a staple in our home because of their simplicity and versatility. My kids enjoy them, as do the hired help around the homestead, which is why I assembled this special recipe book, just for those who need a little help making ends meet. The Ramen noodle recipes included in this latest recipe book are flavorful and spicy. A vast majority of these recipes can be prepared very easily in a matter of minutes, which is an added bonus around here when things get busy and time is short. Ramen noodles are so easy to make that I often let my kids make their own, and doctor them up as they see fit. As a matter of fact, more than a few of these recipes come directly from my kids experiments. A few of our favorite Ramen noodle recipes include; Broccoli and Ramen Salad, Thai Chicken Peanut Ramen Salad, Sunflower Napa Salad and Cubed Chicken Ramen Noodle Salad, just to name a few. If you're in need of quick, easy, and cost effective meal solutions, then this is the recipe book for you. Bon Appetit, Ann Sullivan
