Frugal Friday

This recipe makes for a nice lunch or dinner. It is under $3 to make this as a lunch and you can prepare it as a dinner for a family of 5-6 for under $5. We call it Ramen Suprise at our house. It is a classic from my husband!
4-5 packs of chicken flavored ramen noodles
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
cheese for garnish
Cook ramen noodles in a large pot until most of the water has boiled off. Add can of cream of mushroom soup. Serve in soup mugs and garnish with your favorite shredded cheese. (We use mild cheddar)
This can easily be turned into a dinner also. Add a veggie, such as can of corn, peas or french style green beans. You can also add a 6 or 12 oz. can of chicken. (leftover chicken breast would work well) Top with cracker crumbs or cheese and enjoy!
