Broke as a Joke Creamy Ramen Delight

What you'll need:

Scavenging potential for:
Veggies def, Meat.. hopefully?
I Block Ramen - any Flvr
Water - I KNOW you've got that
Flour
Bullion - as available
Spices - as available

Put some water on a back burner for the noodles (don't add em yet), bring it up to a simmer, let it hang out.

Scour your freezer for any frozen veggies, and hopefully you'll find some meatballs left over from when you had some money, I did! Yes! But if you have left over whatever, chicken, tofu, porks, grab it.

In a smallish saucepan, melt about 1 tbs butter, then stir in enough flour to make a nice roux. Generally bout as much butter as you used. When it comes together, scrape that stuff out into a medium bowl.

In the same pan, add about 1.5 cup water, the ramen packet, (I used beef cause I found meatballs) and whatever bullion and spices you have. Light simmer here.

Okay, so on to the delight. If your veggies and/or meat are frozen, you can either nuke em, or blanch them in the ghetto broth you just made. When your delight ingredients are at least room temp, throw them in the bowl with the roux, and mix that crap right up, so everything is well coated. Extra moisture at this point is good, get the roux working on it's creamy stylins.

So now, you can crank the water for the noodles, and throw them in when it's ready. I suggest overcooking them a little, because they're going to soak up the sauce, and that might make for a slightly thicker dish than you're really looking for.

Okay, so grab a rubber spatula and scrape all the yummy delight-ness into your saucepan with the ghetto broth. Low simmer here, and stir till all is well incorporated. The ghetto broth will get nice and creamy, like a stroganoff sauce. Totally delight.

When noodles are ready, drain completely, toss in a bowl, and cover with your Ghetto Saucy Delight.

Enjoy with sweet thoughts of the cash dollar greenbacks you saved trotting through your mind.

See, ramen CAN be classy!
