Instant Gourmet Ramen

Yes, I know instant food is generally crap.

I know.

But we, especially we men, are human – and sometimes, well, lazy.

Especially when we live alone or have a hangover.

So, instant has it’s moments. And, as horrible as instant food is, it can be easily dressed up to taste fresh, simply by tossing in a few fresh ingredients. It’s amazing what a little sauted garlic added to instant anything will do. Throw in whatever fresh veggies you have, and you have a meal – and a not entirely unhealthy one.

Instant ramen, with the above garlic, or just with a sprinkling of sesame oil and pepper. Top it with a couple of leftover greens , onions whatever. Throw in some shredded cold cuts and voila.
