if ur ever looking for an easier, cheaper and more balanced meal ive got the "recepie" for you
it’s just instant noodles with eggs and veggies but it fills me up, and while it is high in sodium, is helpful if cooking is a bit of a challenge for you/you’d eat something worse for you otherwise
basically all of this can be changed to taste/appetite, but i have a big stomach, so I’ll be making a larger bowl. recepie can easily be cut in half.
ingredients:
- 2 eggs
i love eggs and they’re good for you duh. i eat lots of eggs because they help meet daily nutritional needs and if you buy an 18 pack, they can be kinda cheap; as well as the fact they can be easily used up if they’re about to go bad
- seasoning salt (optional)
can be found at dollar store, can be replaced with re…

- frozen variety vegetables
i buy frozen because they’re already chopped, alot cheaper, won’t go bad (unless you thaw and refreeze them), and obviously vegetables are good for you. pick any veggie you want, i usually go with carrots, broccoli, or parisian mix.
- 2 packs of mr.noodle
base of the meal, cheap as hell. especially if you buy a full palette of them.
- butter/oil/lard
to fry the eggs
- spices & herbs of choice
spices really make this bad boy. i usually use garlic, paprika, pepper, oregano and ginger but honestly, throw pretty much a little of anything in here. as i type this, im using a bit of curry powder and sage in addition to the other ones.
steps:
- begin with a frying pan or pot. ive even used a steel mixing bowl, get crazy with it. set the stovetop to low-medium heat, on my stove i use 3.5/9. add butter and once it’s melted and spread out easily, wait a minute for it to heat up more.
-crack the eggs in, there should be a nice sizzle. i like my yolks runny, and it mixes better with the "broth" later, so take a fork and carefully try to grab the clear membrane around the egg yolk. attempt to pull it off slowly, but if it doesnt come off fully, no biggie. this is just so the egg cooks more evenly while leaving the yolk soft. i use the seasoning salt to sprinkle onto the eggs, the broth does not need it.
-continue to cook until the white is solid. the yolk should still be almost all soft by now, but even if it isn’t, itll still go well with the rest of it.
-put them into a bowl from the pan. if there are egg bits stuck on the pan after, they’ll come off.
-put water, ¼-½ the bag of frozen vegetables, spices, and flavour packets into the pan. crank that baby to max heat. once it’s boiling, put the noodles in. could probably turn the heat down a bit now. cook until the veggies are soft enough to be poked by fork without much effort. if there’s not enough water, just add a bit more.
we’re done! put the noodles into the egg bowl, or if you’re crazy like me, put the eggs into the pan of noodles.
now, this makes alot of noodles, so for some it should probably be halved, but it works for me, and it works if you haven’t eaten all day and are ravenous.
enjoy! (i hope)
