I usually have four cases in the cupboard all the time. For some reason I can't find the "cajun" flavor here. We do the stir-fried noodle thing here too frozen/fresh veggies and chicken or pork. Sometimes just the noodles, part of the seasoning pack, and a couple slices of sandwich ham sliced up and tossed in.
P.S. I thought ramen noodles were required in ones possession to register on any survival forum. Thought I saw that in the TOS.
A wise person does at once, what a fool does at last. Both do the same thing; only at different times.
Odd you should say that because I have seen a stirfry made in Hawaii with spam AND Ramen noodles.
Rick have you ever tried the turkey Spam? I'm usually an adventurous eater but I've never been able to bring myself to buy a can.
I make my own "canned meat" from wild game. I grind wild boar or venison with garlic, onions, herbs and spices and put it in straight walled Mason jars and presure cooker can them. makes a spam like meatloaf that you can slice and fry just like Spam. I also can chunks of meat just seared and stirred into sauce or gravy. The canning process finishes the cooking without over cooking if you put fully cooked food into the jars.
I never have. Eating turkey Spam would be sort of like sacrilege in my book. Besides, I like regular Spam too much.
Canned meat is canned meat. I don't know why but it all seems to have the same taste to me. I have commercially canned meat and home canned meat but I have it reserved for emergencies or running out of date, whichever.

Haluski is a traditional Polish dish this variation is made with spam and ramen. I came up with this myself.
1 head of cabbage, cored and parboiled in salted water then cooled and julianne cut
1 medium to large yellow onion julianne cut
Minced garlic to taste I like about 6 cloves but I realy love garlic.
1 can of spam cut into match stick like pieces
3 packages of pork ramen (which can be cooked in the same water as the cabbage after cabbage is done.
1/2 stick or butter
1 tablespoon basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 cups of your favorite cheese shredded.
Parboil the cabbage then cut all the vegetables and the spam
then in a large pan melt the butter over medium heat and add the onions and cook until transluscent and softened. Add the garlic, the basil, the cabbage and the spam.lower the heat and saute slowly until the onions and cabbage have carmelized slightly and then add the cooked noodles and stir until everything is combined well and cook 2 -3 minutes longer and season to taste serve on a platter and top with shredded cheese.
To those who mention stir fry:
You drain the broth/liquid off before you throw it in the pan, right?
We can fresh venison, which makes a great "Beef & Noodles" dish with ramen. I just dump a jar of the venison in a saucepan, add a little onion and season to taste (just pepper and some parsley works for me). Bring to a simmer and add the ramen, the broth will thicken up into a nice gravy for the dish. I chuck the flavor packet.
Two packs ramen noodles, toss the packets
one can of chicken
one pack of peanuts
half an onion chopped
two tablespoons of soy sauce
one hot pepper(whatever you got) chopped
one clove of garlic crushed
boil until onions are clear and drain water
stir in one tablespoon of lemon juice and two tablespoons of honey.

Well why not?
I don't know what prison you were in, but you can't get all that stuff on commisary, at least in the Texas citadels. Shpreads are more common in prison than elaborate Ramen dishes. Usually ramen is either consumed crushed and dry with the seasoning packet, or cooked in the bag with a stinger.

Federal in Texas. And yeah, cooked with a stinger. The lemon juice, onion, garlic was bought with postage stamps out of the kitchen. Thr rest we could purchase. It's still a tasty recipe...
Well why not?
Here's my recipe for a noodle dish:
- Cook rice noodles, or any type of noodle.
- Add Thai Peanut sauce and 1/4 cup cashews.
- Add cooked potatoes, peppers, onions, or meat to taste.
Um-hm good.

You are correct Alpine i was alot better off than others were. I could afford to buy what i needed. Even if it was just ramen
Well why not?
I had a Korean roommate for a while, and he got me hooked on a spicy ramen packet that you could buy at the international farmer's market or Asian grocery store. We'd cut up spam or chicken, if we had it. Once everything is boiling, you can add an egg. Let it cook for about 45 seconds, and then stir it up with chopsticks or a fork and it will cook quickly. It's very tasty.
