On a tight budget, looking for a quick dinner recipe and had most ingredients on hand. I have seen people do many different things with Ramen to make meals out of and use it as base for other recipes. I myself have done a similar dish using ground beef but I wanted something cheaper than ground beef & I thought pork sausage would be splendid with pork Ramen. Breakfast sausage was on sale at my grocer & I have never seen anyone use breakfast sausage before. It turned out very tasty, my entire family enjoyed it so figured I'd share:-)

Ingredients

  1. 4 packagesPork flavor Ramen Noodles (or any flavor you prefer, I used pork as I thought it'd go great with the pork sausage)
  2. 2 cansgreen beans (cut, French, Italian, whole- your preference)
  3. 1 cancorn
  4. 16 ozroll of breakfast sausage (I used Kroger brand Mild Pork)
  5. OPTIONAL** frozen diced green bell peppers and onions

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook and then drain sausage, set aside.

  2. 2

    While sausage is browning, in a separate pot, boil Ramen according to package instructions. (Will be mushy if noodles are over cooked)

  3. 3

    Leaving some water in noodles, Drain Ramen and add flavor packets and stir.

  4. 4

    Add cooked sausage, veggies and any other preferred seasoning, stir all together. (To avoid over salting, keep in mind that it already has the included Ramen seasoning) Continue cooking over medium low heat until all veggies are warm and cooked.

  5. 5

    Ready to serve.

  6. 6

    OPTIONAL, at this point, you can add to a casserole dish and bake at 325 apx 15-20 minutes to serve as a casserole. I kept it in the pot and served as a ONE pot recipe.

  7. 7

I am a married, stay at home Mom with two teens, 17 & 19 as well as a new baby. I love trying new recipes. I love this app and all the wonderful recipes I've found using it over the years. Not a big fan of posting recipes but I will try to get a few on here, eventually:) I do try to take pix of recipes I've cooked from here (if the recipe doesn't already have several posted) because I'm a visual person, so I understand folks wanting to see the finished product;)
