i never like spagetti sauce so i liked to cook up like 2 packs with no flavor and then strain it out throw it in a bowl with some butter and parmasion and whala u have a nice meal.( i think last time i did that was like 10 years ago)
but thats my trick

[Adam of Team TapeVest]

Spent $8 on a 48-pack of chicken flavored ramen at BJs...cook up two packages at a time...it's delicious. I'm poor now, so I kinda have to, but even if I wasn't, I'd still partake.

I like the occasional Ramen/tuman meal de el Pat 'O Mac.

Go to our local 99-cent store and get the least expired can of tuna. Remember, Big Daddy movie...the dented cans are at least 10-percent off.

Go to your local Burger-King or fast food restaurant and grab a handful of mayo packets for the tuna. Take the Noodle portion of your Ramen packet and cook just the noodles. Then add the tuna full of mayo for a nice bootleg tuna/ramen meal de el Pat 'O Mac.


Damn, Ric...just damn

Yeah folks. I had to revive a year and a half old thread.

Moved to Charleston, WV and still looking for a job. The trip cost more than I had expected, and I'm reverting to the "Po Man's Diet" so the wife and kid can still afford to eat.

Gimme some more (cheap) recipes.

Trade you making me a Raven deck for dinner at long john silvers :p
seriously though, most of the ones i have tried so far on here are freakin delicious.

You already posted my favorite way to eat the stuff. Glad to know that I am not the only one to try it this way.

Almost forgot one of my favorites...

Po' Man's Sketti

Ingredients needed:
1 pack - Ramen Noodles (as cheap as you can get, we're talkin' "off brand" ramen)
1 can - Store brand spaghetti sauce (You probably don't need the whole can)

Instructions:
Cook ramen according to instructions. Drain. Open can of spaghetti sauce. Mix according to taste (I prefer heating the sauce IN my noodles on the stove.)

Serving Suggestion:
Can be served with "Po' Man's Garlic Toast" (see recipe below.)

I would assume that you can replace Ramen in any other recipe that requires noodles. I have also been known to visit my local sub shops to buy day old bread to make mulitple PB & J's. Other than buying in bulk and growing your own vegetables, I cannot really think of anything else to suggest. This subject also made me remember a blog from Yahoo some time back. Maybe it can offer ideas or hope: http://onedollardietproject.wordpress.com/2008/09/01/it-starts-today/

Are regular noodles that expensive that you would need to use Ramen Noodles instead?

[frehocc]

What I used to eat.

Get a couple packs of "Maggie" brand curry noodles. It costs less than S$0.20 per pack, which means around US$0.14 per pack.
Get water to boil.
Drop noodles in
Drop the powder in

If you are feeling posh, you may add an egg.

Wait for 3 minutes. Whole meal costs less than $0.50 not including electricity, and you eat out of the electric pot to save on washing. Just remember to switch off the power before digging in

Feast well!!

Fukin rich man variation: Add abalone, prawns, meatballs etc for a seafood feast. Get it done by your maid.

Poorman food part 2

Get one of those giant loafs of bread that always sells cheap at a big supermarket chain (not sure about US, but we always have no-frills unbranded bread here, goes cheap and comes in big loafs)
If you are very poor. Dip in water and eat
quite Poor: you may buy a giant 1kg tin can of margarine and spread sparingly
slightly poor: Have a cup of 3 in one coffee/ Milo/ chocolate etc. Dip bread in drink and eat.
Poor: Combine quite poor and slightly poor.
Fukin rich: Buy bread. Toss bread out. Buy caviar. buy crackers. Spread caviar. Add champagne, get it done by your butler.

Here are some points of my ideal instant ramen....
- Add some real meat and some veggies, not those packaged dry stuffs. Some steamed spinach and some luncheon meat is fine by me.
- If you can, make your own soup since the soup base that comes with the ramen pack is loaded with MSG.
- If you can't, cook the soup and the noodle separately so you can taste MSG based soup to the fullest.

basically describes the lazyman version of lunch/dinner/supper for most of the local populace  

with this anything goes, from veggies to any form of processed meat that you can get your hands on like hotdogs, meatballs etc etc, personally i use nuggets (or any form of processed chicken) that have been microwaved then dropped into the soup for soggy goodness

Well, doesn't MSG stand for Mmmmm... Soup Good...?

coupons man, coupons. i saw a little old lady buy $40 worth of food for about $0.30. it was amazing.

I always did want to find out where they get the crazy amount of coupons they have. I try to look around my Sunday papers for them and I save like $10 off of $100, which is still awesome. But then I see the OLD folks who have carts of stuff and the damn store owes THEM money. And then I get sad.

No, it stands for Madison Square Garden 

Well, monosodiam glutamate's after-meal side effects are just unpleasant at least to me. Usually, It makes me feel very thirsty and my face and fingers numb for hours.......
