Tasty Tomato Ramen

Submitted by Aubribanana

"This is a quick and easy side dish that my BF and I love. If you want to make it a meal you could easily double the ingredients and add some cooked chicken."

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 1 (3 ounce) package ramen noodles, Discard seasoning packet
• 1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1⁄2 teaspoon dried basil
• 1⁄2 tablespoon olive oil

directions

1. Cook the Ramen however you like to. The fast and easy way is in a bowl of water in the microwave, I usually I boil some water in a small sauce pan. Drain the Ramen and leave in the strainer, use the same sauce pan to heat the olive oil. Once the olive oil is hot, add the garlic and saute stirring constantly until fragrant. Add balsamic vinegar and basil, cook 1-2 minutes while stirring. Add tomatoes and heat thoroughly. Add the Ramen to the tomato mixture and stir. This recipe is easy to adjust to your taste, if you like more vinegar and more, personally we like a lot of garlic so I add a bunch, if you like thyme and oregano add those to your imagination is the limit.

This is very easy and quick. Just what I was looking for tonight after a busy day. I did add some chopped tomatoes and green onions. Thanks Aubribanana for sharing your recipe. Made for Spring PAC 2009.
