Chili Cheese Ramen Wonder Recipes

Steps:

• Get a 3-quart casserole with a lid, and put about 6 cups of water in it, cover it and stick it in the microwave for about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, crush the packages of ramen slightly, carefully open and remove the seasoning packets, which you won't need.
• (Collect'em, trade'em with your friends. I have 47 assorted seasoning packets now!) Set aside the ramen for now.
• Open the cans of chili and the tomatoes.
• Do not drain the tomatoes: you'll need the juice in this or it might be kind of dry.
• If the cheese is sliced or in a chunk, break or cut it up into small bits that will melt easily.
• Take the casserole out of the microwave, dump in the ramen noodles, pushing all the bits down into the water, breaking it up a bit more if necessary.
• Cover and return to microwave oven, cook for 5 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Check to see if the ramen noodles seem mostly done.
• (You don't want them mushy. Okay, maybe you do, but I don't) If they seem done, drain well.
• The lid on my casserole is not a tight fit, so I just hold the lid on and turn the whole things sideways so the water drains out.
• Dump in the chili and tomatoes, and toss well.
• I used two large spoons to do this.
• Cover and return to microwave, cook on HIGH for 5 minutes or until hot throughout.
• When you remove the casserole from the microwave, put your side dish in to heat up.
• Then sprinkle the chili ramen with cheese, replace cover, and let stand until cheese melts.
• By the time the side dish is hot, the cheese should be melted nicely.
• Now, check to see if they got that table set, or if you're gonna put this in the fridge for tomorrow night's dinner!
