What do you do with your 2 minute noodles?

[Life is Good]

Ok girlies...this is a cheap, nasty and heart-stopping 2-minute noodle special that I feel compelled to share. Truth be told I have not had it since my uni days 11 years ago, but as I recall it sure beat the normal, bland, just-add-the-sachet solution. I invented it all by myself

Step 1: Get a small bag of cheese and onion chips and crush the bag so that all the chippies are broken up.

Step 1: Boil your noodles, add you sachet and transfer to bowl.

Step 3: Add a knob of butter

Step 4: Pour entire contents of crushed chip bag onto nooodles

Step 5: Top with a whole lot of tasty cheese and microwave until cheese is melted onto chips

Step 6: Apologise to your heart and make sure you have the ambulance on speed-dial

hahahaha Sambo. I love that you invented it yourself!

We use 2 minute noodles a lot as we are cooking for 7 people in this house. We get the no name brand bulk pack, which is $1.09 for 5 packs. It is definitely a cheap alternative to pasta or rice, and they go far.

I serve them lightly friend with vegies topped with a sauce (soy, kecap manis, sweet chilli etc). I also serve them in casseroles to bulk it up as long as the casserole has a thick base.
And I mainly use them in stirfries which we cook a lot of.

I have used them in omelettes, quiches as well. I can't live without them!

How on earth did you come up with this invention? I'd never had thought to add a bag of crushed chips. Was it a drunken moment , or are you a regular mixer of odd flavours (I am...love sweet with savoury).

I think I'm going to have to wait until I'm not pregnant then read this thread again then see what sounds nice. At the moment my stomach isn't handling much .

[rikki]

Thanks for this thread girls... my DD is always wanting 2 min noodles... now I can try some of your recipes without feeling guilty for giving them to her (although I may avoid giving her the crushed chips one) I too thought, what soup mix? That sounds yummo, so it's a pkt of chicken noodle soup is it?
