Notes
Proteins- Chicken and spicy beef go amazing with ramen noodles and will quickly remind you of your Asian favorites! Another great additive is seafood like shrimp or an alternative protein like eggs. Vegetables - Crispy green beans, thin slices of carrots, Chinese cucumbers, or something fun like watercress provides color and texture. All of these (and so many more!) are yummy additions. Toppings - Try slices of green onions, red pepper, peanuts, or hot sauce. Various other ingredients - Coconut milk, fish sauce, or sesame oil can be added during cooking to mix up the flavors.
