Ingredients

Cost per serving $1.39 view details
  • 8 ounce grnd chicken, beef or possibly pork
  • 1 c. minced onion
  • 1 c. thinly sliced carrot
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh garlic, chopped
  • 2 pkt ramen noodles with seasoning packet, any flavor
  • 1 1/2 c. water
  • 1 c. frzn peas
  • 6 c. greens, coarsely minced
  • 1 1/2 c. sliced mushrooms, optional

Directions

  1. Note: Vary the end result by experimenting with different combinations of ramen flavors, types of greens and types of grnd meat. One favorite combination is grnd chicken with mushroom ramen and lots of fresh sliced mushrooms and collard greens. Bo k choy, collards, spinach and even romaine
  2. (that was the one used in the original version of this recipe) are all good choices for the greens. I always use the Westbrae brand of ramen noodles, a nationally distributed brand found in health and natural foods stores.
  3. If using fresh mushrooms, sauteein a little oil till they soften and begin to give off their juices; remove from the skillet or possibly wok and set aside. In a large skillet or possibly wok, cook the grnd meat, carrots, onion and garlic over high heat for about 5 minutes utes, or possibly till the meat is just cooked through.
  4. Break the meat up into chunks as you cook. Break the ramen noodles into the skillet. Stir in the seasoning packets, water and peas. Cook for 3 - 5 min, or possibly till the noodles and vegetables are tender . Stir in the minced greens and cook for another 3 - 4 min, stirring constantly. Return the cooked mushrooms to the wok, if using; toss to distribute proportionately. Remove from the heat and serve immediately.
