Here I am eating a bowl of Ramen and my brother decided to be the good guy and bring home pizza.  Now I am not a wasteful person, and ramen doesn’t store well after it is cooked, AND pizza is just too good to pass up. Hence Pizza Ramen was born. With a few tweaks from the original recipe I give you the new and improved pizza ramen.

Here’s what’s in it:

• Handful of Pepperoni, quartered
• 1/2 diced Tomatoes
• 1 packet beef ramen & the seasoning packet
• 1/8 tsp italian seasoning
• dash dried basil

Ok, first to clear things up you can use canned tomatoes or fresh ones it doesn’t matter to me.

Boil your 2 cups of water for your ramen. While you are doing this take your pepperoni and cut it into quarters. (Assuming that your pepperoni is pre-sliced). You don’t have to do this but if you don’t they tend to clump together and while the result is an amazing hunk of warm pepperoni; you don’t have any more in your soup.

As soon as the water starts to boil add your noodles and pepperoni.  Wait about a minute then add your tomatoes., keep cooking. When your three minutes are up and your ramen is finished cooking feel free to add a couple of pepperonis on the top and have at it. Feel free to top it with a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese if you happen to have some on hand and this is really great served with old pizza crusts (or breadsticks). Feel Free
