Recently, my buddy Ian and I were thoroughly ridiculed for purchasing TV dinners. As very busy college students, student organization executive board members, and employees at our respective establishments, time is a very valuable resource. Why spend time cooking when I can instead spend it staring at the same line of code for hours on end because my brain cannot take anymore input for the day?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alas, a home-cooked meal is necessary after a long game jam weekend filled with fast food and no salads. However, oftentimes when I try to find recipes, the websites I find are littered with ads. I also just don&#8217;t know what websites are worth my time. I&#8217;m sure you all share this struggle, but have no fear- I am here to provide a delicious meal without anything getting in the way of you preparing your dish. Without further ado, let us dive into a personal favorite of mine, ramen (pictured above)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Maruchan ramen cup<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we go any further, I must reiterate that this recipe requires a <em>cup<\/em> of Maruchan ramen, not a packet. This is because the packets are gross in comparison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Equipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>microwave<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>microwavable cup<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>fork (does not need to be microwavable)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When I make guides, I like to make them as thorough as possible. As such, let&#8217;s begin with your trip to Walmart. The ramen aisle should be near other dry foods. It may be hard to find at first, but make sure you&#8217;re looking for that Maruchan logo. Once again, <em>do not<\/em> get the packets. Get the cups. Please.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put the ramen cups (not packets) in your cart\/basket. This part is crucial- oftentimes I forget to do this and end up walking around Walmart with a full load in my hands. This, in turn, makes people believe I am a fool when I am, in fact, not a fool. If you forgot a cart\/basket, leave the ramen, grab a cart\/basket, and restart from step one.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Purchase the ramen cups. Pretty self-explanatory, but an important step nonetheless. The last thing you need to be known for is ramen theft.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter your kitchen of choice. Typically, a kitchen with a sink and a microwave is my go-to.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open a ramen cup and put the ramen in a separate, microwave-friendly cup (important) (and what I do every time).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put the ramen in the microwave and set it for two (2) minutes. Fun fact: if you stare at the timer, it goes down faster.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the ramen is done, remove it from the microwave and wait a (1) minute or two (2) for the ramen to cool down. Unless, of course, you&#8217;re me- then immediately start eating and scald your tounge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assuming you&#8217;re not me, dig in! Don&#8217;t forget the optionally microwave-friendly fork.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello fellow chefs!
