More tips

>>Somehing to think about!<<
If you boil something in the water with noodles the noodles will take on a little of that flavor! So if you want to change the taste of your ramen to vegan boil frozen veggies in the water with them!
If you're bored with ramen but don't have much money keep a few things around to help zing up your dish.

*>Frozen Veggies - A must for anyone, because who has the time to go out and get new tomatoes every week, plus storing them is a hassle, and chopping them is right out of the question in a time pinch. And we can all use the extra nutrition right?

*> Keep your favorite spices close - I tend to favor basil and garlic so I keep dried basil and a canister of dried garlic in my cabinet. You can do a lot with a little!

*> Try something new - Don't be afraid to try out new things. Some friends and I discovered that Ranch powder (from your local Wal-Mart) goes pretty well with Ramen. And soysauce can make old dishes seem new.

*> Coupons are your friend - Yes they are! You can throw anything into a pan and have it come out pretty ok. But coupons can give you the things to throw in!

*> When you don't know - ask that chick (or guy) down the hall that always looks like they have something tasty to eat. Maybe they can only cook a few dishes but hey it looks good right?

*> Trade recipes - If you're at school or work and people have cooked something nummy, talk to them. Don't be afraid. Go ahead and ask for the recipe. If they can't remember ask if you could get it tomorrow or next week. I've gotten a few different recipes for my collection this way.
