Quick Ramen Noodle Lunch - Video Post

Posted in: Dinner Ideas, Food Photos, Lunch Ideas, Soup/Stew Ideas, Video Posts |

I can’t be the only one who lived of Ramen Noodles in college, can I?

Well they finally lightened them up and in a pinch they can be used to make a quick lite meal! Seriously! Check it out…

Quick Ramen Noodle Lunch

Cook the noodles according the package. Add the broccoli and shrimp in at the end and continue to cook for about 1-2 minutes.

Serve! Can’t get any easier then that!!

This would also work with leftover cooked chicken, or those short cuts even leftover pork chops cut up would be good!

    LOVE this idea, Roni! I also remember eating ramen noodles a lot when I was younger, my 8 year old daughter loves them and I keep them on hand for a quick lunch for her, but since they do have a lot of sodium I dont eat them anymore…..I will definatly be looking for this lighter version…although here in Idaho things like that are hard to find. (just a quick side note, I thought it was comical how you called them “Ray-men” noodles, not sure if thats what there called where you live, but I’ve always heard them called “rah-men” noodles) Not sure if thats just a differnt part of the country thing, kinda like over here we say coke instead of soda or couch and not sofa…..anyhoo…great job!

    This looks great. Hope I can find the low-Points Ramen noodles somewhere!

  4. Amanda on May 10, 2008 8:45 am

    Oh this looks GOOD!!!! I’m going to be looking for this at the store this week.

    And I say RAY-MEN noodles too…so it’s not just you. ;)

    Ah Roni….with the toddler….without the toddler….we just can’t get enough of Roni! So it’s OK either way. I hope I can find these lighter Raymen noodles around here in central Illinois.

    Great new hair. I agree about the bangs though. I cut bangs into mine with my last new style about a month ago. I love the style but hate the bangs. I pin them back every day :-)

    I think the ramon noodles are a great idea. They open so many doors. I would be interested to see a Thai ramon meal with some chicken, coconut milk, mushrooms and a bit spice from some red chili sauce (in the asian food isle). I bet you could make up so great dishes.

    Roni, you rock. That’s all there is to it.

    And your haircut looks fab, too :-)

    looks great! I’ll search for these ramen noodles in Alabama. FYI… down here, I say “ray-men” and my husband says “rah-men.” I guess it’s not a regional thing, it’s just a preference!

  9. Pam on May 11, 2008 1:43 pm

    what brand of rayman noodles did you use?

  10. Deanna on May 12, 2008 1:36 pm

    live on them and perogies in college. you can even make ramen noodles look gourmet - what talent!!!! hope mothers day was fun!!

  11. arielle on May 12, 2008 3:41 pm

    I can’t believe they finally made them. I can’t wait to buy some.

  12. roni on May 12, 2008 4:22 pm

    Hey Roni, I was only able to find the Beef flavor Choice Ramen noodles in my grocery store. Have you tried that flavor yet??

  14. roni on May 13, 2008 1:40 pm

    no, but I have it in the cupboard! :~P

    Looks so great. For those who can’t find the lite version, a fun substitute (not quite as quick though) are Japanese udon noodles. They’re lightly texture and sort of creamy like Ramen, but they’re available in pretty much any supermarket these days. I make them with shrimp, too. Sometimes carrots along with the broccoli. Such a great flavor combo.

    And for the record, my sister and I always said “rum-yahn.” WAAAY wrong. :)

  16. Michelle on May 14, 2008 3:28 pm

    Just picked these up today…. wish I could squeeze them in my diet today. Can’t wait to give them a try! …And on 29 cents! Can’t beat that!

  17. em on May 15, 2008 2:11 am

    I think I’m a big kid cos of how much I still love noodles and jello.. etc. One thing- I think you were saying but I just can’t pick it up- maybe the American accent? (I’m British and not used to it) How many points for a packet of these lighter noodles?

  18. em on May 15, 2008 2:13 am

    oops, hasty hasty- its all there- I see it! Thanks!

  19. Michele D on May 15, 2008 12:32 pm

    Ramen noodles!! WOO HOO - and we say RAY-men too! They make them right here in Lancaster County where I live but I haven’t been able to find them in the supermarket yet!!!??!

    Let’s go NISSIN!! Get them to my local Giant or Weis!!!

    Thanks Roni for finding these, I never would have thought to look for them, thinking that ramen noodles were never again going to be part of my diet! I am thrilled! They are on my list of my top-ten-all-time-favorite foods!

    :-)

  20. Shanna on May 19, 2008 3:30 pm

    Wow LOVE this and SOOOOOOOOO easy! EXACTLY what I need! THANK YOU~!!!

  21. Sandy on May 22, 2008 2:57 pm

    OMG - I tried these today and was shocked at how they taste just like the regular ramen noodles, which have quite a bit more fat! My kids like to make ramen noodles for a quick snack sometimes, so I will only be buying these Choice Ramen noodles in the future.

    Thanks for letting us know about them, Roni!

    Me again! OKay I searched and SEARCHED my area for this product without luck. Then today on TOTAL accident I stumbled across a similar product. So for those of you unable to find the CHIOCE ramen, look for the KOYO ramen in the organic section of your grocery store! I found mine @ Fred Meyers! They are 200 cals, 1g fat, 3g fiber for each package and YUMMY!!!!!

    […] since opening the frozen bag of shrimp to make my Quick Ramen Noodle Lunch. I’ve been a bit shrimp obsessed. I love brainstorming so I asked myself, what can I do with […]
