Cheesy Ramen Noodles

This is why I love this site. Recipes and ingredients I might never think to try - but do! - pleasantly surprise me!! Please try this before you weigh in. If you’re turned off my processed cheese or non-gourmet ramen? Move along. After an afternoon of running 100 errands, came home and I was starving! Wanted something quick and remembered seeing this recipe. Made two servings - one with chicken flavored ramen and the other with beef. In the beef version, used 2 slices Kraft cheese slices. In the chicken, used 1 slice plus a couple TBLS shredded cheddar. In both cases, topped with green onions (I needed to use up) and drizzled with a little Siracha. I’m no chemist but there is something about the processed (American) cheese that makes for a creamier result. This was like a spin off Mac N Cheese. I liked the beef ramen version better. This is budget friendly, great for novice cooks, super quick and filling. It’s also adaptable for the more mature palette. Would i make often? No but it IS a quick lunch and would make again. If I had found this when I was 20, I would have made all the time! Thanks Emily! This was fun!

It was good. I've added hot dogs, salt/pepper, potatoes. Yummy.

I just was curious about this recipe. I would def add a little milk to help with the texture and I used chicken flavored, sprinkling only a little of the packet on top. This was surprisingly okay, not a gourmet meal, but not terrible.

Super easy and kid friendly. I used chili flavor ramen and mine was hot and spicy and nacho flavored. Easy to switch up the flavors too by different combos of ramen flavors and cheeses. I will try pork flavor next time with swiss cheese and some diced ham lunch meat. Thanks for a great idea.

This is a good basic recipe that works well. As a poor college student I've done Ramen a million different ways - and cheesy ramen is one of my favorite. Here's a tip on how to spice it up - add a tablespoon of butter, two dashes of chili powder, a dash of garlic powder, a dash of cyan pepper, and about a tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce to the top of your cheesy noodles once they are finished cooking and stir well - it's delicious!

Ive been mixing ramens and mac and cheese for years But OMG this is way better!! Its cheap, easy to make and has great flavor how can you go wrong?? I add half the packet to the water and half when I drain the water out. I also rip the cheese in peices and add alittle butter to pan. This is way too good!! Thanks Emily this recipe is gonna make me gain 10 pounds lol
