Quick Ramen Soup

I know it has been a long time but I thought I would share this quick ramen recipe! I was totally craving some asian delights in a bowl with extreme flavor and I did not want to buy it. I knew I could make ramen that was restaurant quality in my own home. I am not talking about doctoring your own pack of noodles. I am talking about flavorful broth made with vegetables and minimal ingredients.

What you will need:

2 Bone Broth (Chicken)

1 inch of Ginger cut in chunks

4 cloves of Garlic

4 Cut Stalks of Green Onions

1 Tsp of Fish Sauce

1 Tbsp of Maggi flavoring

2 Cups of Water

2 Boiled Chicken Breast Boiled

1 Package of  Raw Thinly Sliced Beef

Pound of Large Stemmed Shrimp

1 Box of Ramen Noodles

4 Halved Hard Boiled Eggs

1 Chopped Green Onion

1 Bag of Shredded Carrots

1 Pint of Brown Thinly Sliced Mushrooms

1 Package of Bean Sprouts

The Broth:

In a large stock pot add bone broth, ginger, garlic, and green onions. Allow to simmer slowly for 15 minutes. Then add fish sauce, Maggi flavoring, and 2 cups of water. Allow the broth to continue to simmer for 20 minutes on low. After 20 minutes,discard the ginger, garlic, and green onion from the broth.

Noodles:

While the broth is simmering cook noodles as directed on the box. I always stop cooking them 1 minute shorter than instructed for that classic ramen texture. After cooking shock them in cold water to stop the cooking.

Build the Bowl:

Place the noodles in the bottom of the bowl. Then add mushrooms, carrots, bean sprouts, chicken, shrimp, and beef. Add these items in the corners of the bowl to make sure you can see the contents. Then ladle the hot broth on top. Fill the bowl to the top to cover the contents. Then place the halved egg and green onions on top. You can add some of your favorite condiments like siracha or hoison to give the broth a little extra flavor.

However, you should taste the broth before adding the hot sauce to really get that FLAVOR!

Dessert Tacos?

Tacos are usually something we all think of as savory, but what if I told you that they can be a yummy sweet treat? Today’s recipe is dessert tacos! These tacos are filled with cream cheese, strawberries, blueberries, mint, and dusted with cinnamon sugar. These dessert tacos are so easy to make and won’t make you feel bad to eat. Let me share the recipe!

Tools:

  • Large Bowl

Place one paper damp towel on top of one large plate. Then place the tortilla on top of the damp towel. Next cover the tortillas with an additional damp towel.

Once you have molded all the tortillas place in the pre-heated oven for 10-13 minutes. The shells will become crispy. Make sure to check them after 10 minutes. After crisp, remove from the oven and then mix the cinnamon and sugar. Dust the shells.
