Red Curry Ramen


Ramen is great in a lot of ways. It's cheap, easy to find, easy to make, and tasty. It also sucks in a lot of ways, it's super salty, a bit boring, and not that healthy. My solution is to always add something to my basic ramen. This version is spicy and sweet and super easy to make.

Red Curry Ramen Recipe-
1 pack oriental ramen
1 large bell pepper, chopped
1 can coconut milk
1/2 large onion, diced
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons red curry paste

Mix half the can of coconut milk with 1 cup water and 1 tbsp curry paste, and the seasoning packet and bring it to a boil. While it is cooking take the onion, mushrooms and half the bell pepper and cook them until the onion is nice and clear. Then add them to the broth. Once the mix is at a full boil, add the noodles from the ramen pack. Cover and reduce to a simmer for 2 min, then pour into you bowls.
Take the remaining coconut milk, bell pepper and curry pasta and pulse in a food processor. Take the sauce and divide it between your bowls.

Convention Snacks


I spent all weekend at a con in Jersey, and the husband and I hit up a local Asian market so we could pack out the hotel room with vegan snacks. Mochi, noodle bowls, sesame snacks and tea! We didn't eat anything from the hotel but these were great for times we were too busy to go out and find a restaurant.
