Too late for today's lunch, but we've restocked on #instantRamen. I've been seeing mentions of a food fad that has me interested – cheesey instant ramen. I'm curious to try it.

Sounds unhealthy, highly-processed and tasty - so probably worth a try.

You boil noodles, drain, add soup packet and shredded cheese. Enjoy.

Have you tried it? Any cheese recommendations? Something that melts well would make sense. I'll bet Fontina or Gruyère would be great. Prob wrapped cheese slices are typical?

They make a cheese version now, but my go to is chicken ramen, half the water, half the season plus good olive oil, garlic, parsley. Let the noodles soak in the moisture, add a bunch of freshly grated Parmesan.

@HCBunny I saw a cheese version there too when shopping for a suitable ramen. Guess they're responsive enough to know there's a wave of interest.

Like you I thought chicken would be a good flavour base, so got a chicken & mushroom flavour to work with. Lighter on the soup packet is a good idea to ensure it's not too salty.

Will give it a try this weekend. Parmesan's a good suggestion too – will keep it handy.
