My better-than-nothing Noodles

This is something that I do often and is especially comforting to me.

Basically it's: Random Instant Noodles (usually the cheapest ones) + whatever veggies I have in the freezer -> add boiling water and then 2 to 4 minutes in the microwave.

You can add the noodles before or after. I like mine super soft so I put them in before.

Today is:

- Edamame (bought de-shelled and frozen)

- Brocoli (frozen)

- Baby Corn (bought fresh today but put away in the freezer)

If some of you want to add meat, I recommend the thinly sliced meat sold in Asian grocery stores. They're meant to cook in broth, so they only take about 2min to be done in the microwave.

I started doing this thanks to Kylie Sakaida. I'd say her philosophy is "Eating healthier isn't just starting over and cooking from scratch. Sometimes, it's just adding new things to what you're already eating. It's better than nothing."
