This gets 5 stars not necessarily because of its gourmet flavor, but because of the perfect combination of ease of preparation, cost, flavor, family friendliness, etc. etc. etc. Definitely going to be a "pantry staple" in our house. We used ground turkey, two packs of Ramen (only 1 packet of seasoning), the corn and tomatoes specified, and a few frozen green peas thrown in with the noodles for some color. We also sprinkled cheese on top before serving. The only dishes to clean: our eating bowls and utensils, the one pot and spoon used during prep, and ourselves! Thanks for the recipe--this will trump ordering pizza or Chinese takeout next time we're wanting a break from my normal whole grains/low sodium/high veggie meals :).

For what this dish consists of, it is WAY more delicious than it has any right to be. I was looking for something easy to toss together after a late day at work, and this more than fit the bill! The only real change I made was using a can of (Rotel brand) tomatoes with green chilies. It gave it just a little extra kick. I used 2 packages of noodles (with an extra 3/4c water to compensate) and about a packet and a half of seasoning - perfect! I think the key to getting the noodles to cook properly is remembering to COVER when you simmer. The steam gives them a delicious, chewy, al dente texture. The only reason I didn't rate this one 5 Stars was the lack of visual appeal. It's not pretty, but don't be fooled - IT'S DELICIOUS! I raved, Boyfriend raved, and we will make this again and again!

I had to laugh when I read the Poor White Trash review lol. I guess I am poor white trash then because my kids love the ramen noodles and they love hamburger! I've made this a few times for them and they seem to gobble it up! I sometimes add other veggies to it, like thinly sliced carrots, broccoli and even zucchini. At our house we call it "Yucky Noodles" and it looks yucky, bu they love it! Viva Poor White Trash recipes!

This is wonderful. I have made it two times, and my family really gobbles it up. The first time I made it with beef flavored oriental noodles, and it came out good. I had seasoned the ground beef while cooking, and it was too seasoned when done. I used two pkgs of noodles and ended up cooking another bag afterwards to add to the pan. The second time, I made it with the oriental flavored noodles, and I did not season the ground beef while cooking. I used three pkgs oriental noodles crushed. My husband said it was better. Therefore, next time, I will not season the ground beef while cooking, and I will use 3 pkgs noodles. I will use 2 cans diced tomatoes, and 1 can corn. This will be a commonly found dish at my home.

Best described as PWT (Poor White Trash) food. In this case, mixing substandard ingredients together does not improve their quality. I think a much better meal would have been to just make hamburger patties and serve the vegetables and prepared soup on the side.
09/16/2006
This is a very kid friendly dish. I used frozen corn (no canned), 1 can of beef broth, and 1 can of stewed tomatoes (run through the chopper) as I had no diced. I used 2 pkg beef flavored ramen noodles. The next time I make it I'll use the oriental. I put a dash of soy sauce and dash of worshestire sauce while cooking. I served with some shredded monteray jack cheese w/jalepanos for the adults. Good comfort food and easy to prepare. I will make this again. Thanks for the post!
12/22/2005
This one is super easy. SOOO EASY !! I did change it up though I added peas and carrots (for nutritional value) since non is found in corn.. ,used chicken flavor(what i had on hand) and doubled the recipe. My kids 3 & 4 loved it; So did my hubby and I. Thanks for such a tasty and easy dinner.
01/29/2007
When I presented the meal, my kids said "no way!" I talked them into one bite, and then I couldn't stop them! I used 2 pkgs. beef ramen noodles, but only one flavor packet. I also used the Italian seasoned diced tomatoes. My husband and I added hot sauce to ours--I'm sure salsa would be great as well. This is an easy, filling recipe. I'm definitely making it again.
12/07/2007
Wow...I was very skeptical about this one but after reading all the great reviews I gave it a shot and...it was FANTASTIC and FLAVORFUL! I added some garlic and onions to the beef as well as some salt and pepper, used 2 packs of Oriental Mr. Noodles with their seasoning packets, and added a bit of chicken broth as the mixture looked too dry to cook the noodles. Oh and I also threw in a pinch or two of sugar. I think I might cook the noodles separately next time and then throw them in once they are softened...might be easier and quicker. I'd give this 5 stars if only it looked prettier. Tasted great and husband enjoyed several servings of it!
05/02/2005
Ive made this a few times when its time for me to go shopping again and all I have is ground beef left. I laughed when I saw what EMENDEZ wrote, if they can screw this up that bad, they shouldn't be cooking! Thanks for the recipe anyhow!
03/12/2008
I made this on the spur of the moment and my kids loved it. I omited the tomatoes and used 2 packs of noodles and 3 seasonings. I will definitely make this again!
11/20/2012
This is the best $1.88 I've ever spent! Had a 1/2 pound of ground beef left over and a very short amount of time before dinner. Paid less than $2 for a can of corn, a can of tomatoes w/ green chilis (highly recommend, LOTS of added flavor) and a pack of oriental Ramen. Super easy, super fast, SUPER tasty...my boyfriend ate my leftovers! Halved the recipe except for the seasoning packet, used all of that for addded flavor. Will definitely be making this again...if this poor white trash food is wrong, I don't wanna be right!
02/04/2012
Very good and very easy. Disagree with someone else's "PWT" label. Quick, easy and tasty is of great value, especially when trying to keep the food budget down! I felt that the Oriental flavoring got a bit lost, so I added soy sauce & that perked it up. Next time, I plan to add some chopped onion with the hamburger as it browns.
04/12/2012
I first tried this recipe exactly as printed, and thought it was just okay. Wasn't crazy about the oriental seasoning, and I especially did not like the sweet taste the liquid from the corn gave the dish. Tonight I tried it again, this time using 1lb of beef, two cans of diced tomatoes, two packages of ramen noodles, without using the seasoning packets, one can of corn (drained) and then added about 3/4 cup of tomato sauce, a little fat free half and half, and some parmesan cheese. Delicious!!
10/07/2010
My whole family loves this. Has become a must have on the monthly menu. Easy enough for my teens to cook. I used the oriental noodles, left over bbq sauce and a diced onion. Followed the directions except cooked the noodles seperate and plated them first to make a nest for the meat & veg., looks much nicer that way. This dish has tons of potential. With todays economy this is a good tasting quick easy meal that all will love. (glad that some of the readers are rolling in the dough and can afford top shelf products)
09/11/2010
Super fast and easy meal that the family loved.
07/16/2011
Try adding V8 juice instead of juice from the corn can, and the tomatoes and it is a healthy and tasty alternative, overall this was a quick and good meal for me and my three daughters!
08/04/2011
DELICOUS!! I made some changes. I didn't use tomatoes. I added a T. of beef bolivoan. I used three packets of beef ramon noodles. One or two packets isn't enough. Also, I cooked the noodles seperate. Whole family loved it!
12/31/2008
Wow, this recipe is shocking how it tastes much better than it sounds! One thing I was impressed with was that it tasted even better as leftovers (I usually hate leftovers), I guess the flavor had more time to soak in. I did add garlic and onion to the beef, but other than that, I made it just as written. This is a great recipe that I'll have to remember next time kids are over or I need a quick meal! Thanks for this recipe!
06/27/2012
I am giving this 5 stars not because it's a gourmet meal, but because it was super easy to make and everyone enjoyed it. I am actually shocked it was as good as it was. In order to shave off some sodium, I chopped up fresh tomatoes and used frozen corn. I also used 2 packets of ramen noodles, but only one seasoning packet. Because I used fresh tomatoes, I needed to add some water and soy sauce to get the noodles to soften. But it was great, and GONE! With growing kids/teens - that's all I ask for!
02/01/2012
Love this "white trash" recipe. Quick, easy and kid friendly. I added mixed frozen veggies as well.
07/04/2004
I just created an account with Allrecipes and this is the first recipe I've tried. I usually cook once or twice a week when my wife gets stuck at the office. This was a real easy recipe which I appreciated and it rocked! Very tasty and I guess it's pretty nutritious too. My little guy and I ate most of it and when my wife got home she enjoyed what was left. Thanks
09/14/2010
I have made this for a while now using whatever veggies I have on hand. I dont use canned veggies though. Frozen or fresh work best. I also add a tiny amount of soy sauce and fresh garlic which helps too.
09/10/2012
My family loves this recipe. I used mixed veggies instead of just corn. I also double it b/c I have 3 guys with big appetites eating this. I also serve with bread sticks to round it out. Cheap and easy. Nothing fancy, so if you're looking for gourmet (or are a food snob) don't bother making a recipe that calls for ramen noodles.
08/09/2011
A great way to clean out your pantry staple items (and yes, Ramen is a staple item for us). We used 2 pkgs (plus two seasoning packets) of Chicken-flavored Ramen instead of the Oriental, and perhaps 1/3 c. of salsa instead of the diced tomatoes--the salsa having more flavor in my opinion. What amazing flavor this has! Will definitely make this again and again. The only reason for four stars is that I'm not certain the leftovers taste will match that as the "just cooked" taste since the Ramen noodles tend to become gummy when leftover.
01/31/2012
Been making a similar quick, but tasty dish for years, but instead of Ramen, I've used Kraft Delux mac 'n cheese and a can of Rotel original. Love that taste with cheddar cheese. Quick,easy, cheap, and good!
09/30/2010
I found this recipe when doing an ingredient search for what I thought would be an impossible combination of items. As it turns out, this was not only delicious, but easy, and incredibly budget-friendly! Our 3 year-old loved it. My husband and I both had seconds. It's a great, simple dish, perfect for a fast supper. I followed the recipe exactly except for salting generously after the tomatoes were added. Thanks for a quick, delicious meal!
12/06/2010
This worked out great for my family. I doubled the recipe as I didn't think 4 servings would be enough. We still have plenty of leftovers for lunch tomorrow and that is with everyone having seconds and some people had thirds! Even my picky eater ate it up. Went well with skillet corn bread.
02/12/2009
This was very easy and surprisingly yummy. I browned a whole onion with the ground beef..and added salt, pepper, and Worcestershire Sauce. I used two packaged of Ramen noodles, but only one seasoning pack. I also added a cup of water with the noodles as there didn't seem to be enough liquid. Delicious. :)
06/26/2011
Good quick go-to recipe when you're running low on ingredients. I used rotel, some carrots (I was out of corn), and added a few tablespoons of sour cream at the end. I also used some from fresh herbs and spices instead of the ramen packet (I'm not fond of MSG).
01/31/2012
I start out with breakeing up burger in water. Add frozen veggies (Stir-fry) boil for a few min. Then add noodles. When Just about done cooking shut off heat add 2 eggs and cover. makes a great all in one meal.
07/09/2010
Instead of diced tomatoes I did a small can of tomato sauce...yummy
02/24/2011
This was a great recipe for the kid and grown-ups!
02/12/2009
this was pretty darn good! definitly doable again says hubby and I. :)
04/22/2011
Very easy! I used 1 1/2 lbs of ground beef and 2 pkgs of beef ramen noodles. I also added about 1 cup of water, both season packs and rotel mild tomatoes, canned corn and covered as it simmered. It was perfect! Thanks for this quick and easy recipe!!
09/10/2011
Such a quick, flexible meal. I love recipes I can plug whatever is on hand into, and that's just what I did. I used a pound of leftover cooked brats and doubled the noodles, adding a can of chicken broth and thus draining the corn. I also added a medium zucchini I had in the fridge. I skipped the ramen seasoning pack and added a lot of crushed red pepper. I had never thought of using ramen noodles for the "pasta" in a dish, thanks so much for sharing.
01/24/2012
I made this tonite for dinner. This serves 4 but I had to punch it up to serve 15. Shockingly it wasn't bad. I used the beef noodles, no oriental. I used some beef stock, also I added a little bit of better than bouillon beef to punch up the beef flavor. I also added black pepper and a bit of sugar to off set the tomatoes. Very very yummy!!!
12/07/2004
My husband I loved this quick recipe.I doubled the abount of noodles and I also used 1 can of rotel tomatoes and 1 can diced, I also used the mexi corn. My 4 year old and 2 did not like because it was too spicy. Next time i will leave the rotel out for them. However;If your kids like a little spice leave it in. Thanks
06/26/2011
thanks goodness I was hungry. This stuff isnt bad, but it isnt great either. Its like a hamburger helper.
04/23/2010
Because my family does not like tomatoes, I substituted a can of cream of mushroom soup in place of them. My family LOVED it.
11/15/2010
Unfortunately this didn't go over very well with my family. It seemed to have this funny little taste with all the different spices. However, it was very easy to make so it was worth the try.
01/31/2012
I've made a similar recipe for years - I use rice instead of noodles and do cook chopped onions along with ground beef. I use Rotel tomatoes and depending on how large a dish I'm making, I sometimes add a can of tomato sauce and add some dashes of Worchestershire..my family will say "time for us to have Winkie's goulash".....have also subsititued elbow noodles....whatever way it's worth ***** (5 stars)
02/18/2009
I made this the other night because I wanted to make something quick and easy after work. I thought it ws great. My family loved it too. Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
10/22/2011
The only thing I didn't like about this was that It didn't make enough for seconds. I used 2 pkgs of noodles and went back to make another pkg.
10/15/2010
Good for a quick and easy dinner. I doubled the noodles and seasoning packets, added a few dashes of worcestershire and hot sauce. I also sauted some chopped onion and garlic in skillet before adding the ground beef to brown. It got two thumbs up from the hubby!
07/13/2011
for what it is , all some!! It makes a large amount enough to feed my family of 3. My husband even got seconds.
06/05/2011
I really love how easy and quick this is! Yes it's raman and ground beef but that's just the base... I added the tomatoes and corn but then I also added can asparagus and green beans. I think any veggies added to this would taste great. The noodles do end up a little slimey but it was a HIT in my house.. everyone ate their veggies! I wish I would have known about this recipe when I was a young kid and living off plain raman.
01/10/2009
Awesome recipe! Really easy to make and cheap to boot! All the ingredients are things I usually have on hand (what college student doesn't have ramen?) and it's ready in minutes - can't beat that! I cut all the ingredients in half since I wanted to make just a little for my boyfriend and I for lunch, but I still used a full pack of beef ramen noodles and seasoning (ran out of oriental) and I didn't add the tomatoes because I didn't have it in my pantry like I thought I did :( But instead I added a small chopped onion (fried in a separate pan), and I thought it really added something to the recipe :) I also added about a 1/2 cup of water when adding the seasoning because it didn't seem like I would have enough juices to boiling the noodles in, and covered the pan while simmering. All in all, very good recipe, thanks for posting it! :D
04/13/2011
Great Recepie. I follow the recepie and it came out great. Don't try to season the meat while cooking, it makes it salty. I used Chicken flavored and had to doctor the seasoning a bit later, but it was still great.
12/30/2008
Very good and so easy. Everyone loved it.
12/01/2008
Great recipe to make in a pinch. I had all the ingredients on hand in the pantry. I doubled the noodles like most did. I cooked the noodles in advance but only till it broke apart. It continues to cook when you combine it with the meat mixture. It looked like alot when I was done but it was just the right amount.
06/21/2011
I just tried this recipe expecting to get ho hum results. It was so much better than I expected. I didn't have Oriental flavor Ramen noodles so I used chicken. I also added about a cup of water to the recipe. I'm trying to lose weight so I recommend using frozen corn, which has fewer calories than canned. This is really good for a quick and reasonably tasty meal! To make it even better, it's really inexpensive. Try it!
03/01/2011
This is a keeper!! Good tasting good looking and very economical. I modified it a bit because I don't use canned veggies and was out of tomatoes. So I used a large can of chunky tomato basil soup, and threw in a few peas for color in addition to the corn. I also used almost 2 packages of seasoning. My new go to meal for hamburger for sure.
01/21/2012
I didn't have an ramen noodles and didn't have time to run to the store...but I just used normal spaghetti, to make the flavoring, I crushed up two beef bullion cubes mixed in a little bit of pepper and some garlic salt! YUM! I'm not a fan of tomatoes, but the flavor of this dish was GREAT! Next time I will just use tomato juice and maybe add carrots instead of the diced tomatoes!
03/05/2011
This was an excellent MEAL. I didn't have any corn (imagine that) when it was time to make it so I substituted peas. It was still good and the sweet taste of the peas complimented the spicy seasoning. We also used Rotel, mild. My husband usually doesn't eat tomatoes because it gives him heartburn but he had no complaints after eating! We will make this again.
04/18/2022
I followed this recipe to a T... we really didn't care for it at all. We found it to be extremely bland, which was surprising because Ramon noodle soup is so flavorful. This was my one new recipe for the week and I won't be making it again.
Years and years later I tried this recipe again as I wanted to do something with what I have in the house due to bad weather. This time I read reviews first. I added onion to the ground beef, used Rotel instead of bland diced tomatoes, I used 2 packs of Ramen, along with their seasoning packets. My 8 year old thought it was too spicy, but my husband and I both liked it and it is also good as leftovers. I'll make this again.
04/15/2012
Delicious! Very easy to make and the entire family loved it.
04/22/2012
Love this for a quick, throw together meal. You can substitute any veggie on hand or flavored diced tomatoes. I have also substituted black beans instead of ground beef for a non-meat version. Give a try, and play with the ingredients!
07/20/2010
So easy and good! My picky kids loved it! I used fresh tomatoes and it was great.
07/14/2004
As a family affected by job cuts and big mortgages I've been trying to pinch pennies on grocery shopping and by finding economical recipes. This was a good one and everybody liked it. I didn't spice it up at all since my little ones are too finicky. Even if things pick up for us I will keep this in my meal rotation. Thanks
10/29/2008
Quick, cheap and easy one pan meal. Great for those nights that you need sometihing quick & filling. DH liked more than the rest of us. I added black beans and some chili powder, which I would do again.
06/24/2010
I will most definately make this again. I even had the ingredients to make this, although I only had a 19oz can of tomatoes and 12 can of corn. I had two noodle pks. Very good and makes lots..
09/05/2011
Easy... cheap...not that yummy
09/07/2009
This was quick and easy to make! As others have said, its not pretty, but works. I made a few changes....I added broccoli instead of tomatoes and corn because i didnt have them. Used two packages of noodles and added a little more seasoning and water for the extra noodles.
02/01/2012
It was really good! We used venison and added a can of Rotel and a can of corn. It was a little spicy so we toned it down with cheese. My 1 and 5 year old wouldn't even try it. They pushed their bowls away.
02/25/2011
great and economical
02/19/2012
Great recipe! My husband and I loved it. I wouldn't change anything in it! I have made it already 3 times within 2 week period.
06/15/2010
Its good for what it is. I recommend some saraicha to add a kick.
12/12/2011
You know how when you run out of ideas to make and your pantry is bare so you turn to this wonderful website. Well, that is what I did and I made this last night. Needless to say........Simple rated a 5! Flavor "1"! If I would ever make it again I would season my beef with 2 packages of flavor and 1 package of noodles. There was no flavor at all even when I added soy to the beef. I used 1lb of beef and it was very bland! I did add cheese.
09/24/2009
I made this dish because of all the good reviews, but it was only ok. My kids ages 5 and 9 didn't like it at all. Also, I did not like the smell when it was cooking. I think it was the canned corn smell that I am not used to using. Yes it was easy and different, but I wish I had used my ground beef in good ole' spaghetti instead! If you are wary, skip this dish.
04/10/2009
I really dig this recipe. It's so quick and easy, I honestly don't know why I haven't tried this before. I left out the tomatoes and used a red bell pepper instead. I also added more water and a little soy sauce. I thought the corn was kind of an odd flavor and texture for this - I think it made it taste a little too similar to shepherd's pie the way I make it, so next time I'm going to try snow peas and maybe even some broccoli bits or something like that. This recipe could really go whatever direction you want to take it just by using different meat, seasonings, etc.
02/11/2012
So simple and so delicious!! I anticipated the dish to come out not as pretty as it did - I put more beef and not as many noodles. Instead of the spices, I added taco seasoning. I also added fresh tomatoes and kidney beans. At the very end I added a lot of cilantro. My family raves about it! Will definitely make it another time! Very colorful, easy and yummy. Thank you!
02/01/2012
This is a great idea, but with a history of cancer in the family, we've reduced beef intake, and have stopped eating ramen, and canned anything a long time ago. We used whole wheat noodles, turkey, and fresh vegetables, including sauteed onions instead. A dash of oregano or parsley finishes it perfectly. Very fresh!
07/08/2009
I'm always looking for ground beef dishes because they are one of my hubbies favorites. I was skeptical about this one but because it has so many good reviews, I gave it a shot. Should have followed my instints. I will not be making this one again.
02/01/2012
I use buffalo instead of beef is way better taste that ever!
01/22/2009
Not bad at all! Doesn't look the most appetizing while in the pan, but once put in a bowl looks tasty and 'homey'. I doubled everything except for the corn (I didn't have another can), and used Thai 'ramen' noodles called WaiWai. Used both the seasoning and spice packets but omitted the oil mixture. Also used a 28 ox. can of whole peeled tomatoes that I cut myself in place of the diced the recipe called for. I'll definitely make this again, probably seeing what else would be good in it, but it's definitely okay as it is!
07/13/2004
I just picked up the ramen noodles on sale 8 packs for $1 and I went searching for recipes. The funny thing is the corn was also on sale and I had picked up several cans too. This turned out really good and was so quick to make. My kids liked it a lot. My older daughter wrapped her portion up in a flour tortilla which was a little messy but she was happy. She's planning to take this recipe along when she goes off to her dorm next month. What a good thrify meal. Thanks
03/14/2009
This was a good, quick, easy dinner, and lends itself to lots of modification. My 16-year old made it with ground turkey, also sauteed some onion and red pepper, and seasoned it with curry powder and fresh chopped scallions. Good comfort food.
05/02/2011
Really easy recipe to whip up with stuff you most likely already have on hand. And if you don't... I only had a BIG can of diced tomatoes (28oz) so I used 2 packages of ramen noodles. Also didn't have canned corn at the time, so used a 8oz pack of frozen corn. came together really quick, I added about 1/2 cup water so it would still have a little liquid. My kids ate it! No complaints! we've renamed it Mexi-nese!
09/17/2010
For a standard, no fuss recipe this was pretty good. I doubled the noodles but only used one seasoning packet as others have recommended since they stated it was too much flavor with both, but then we found it sort of lacking in flavor. It was easy and quick, which is a must in our house, but next time I will either add both seasoning packets or flavor the meat a little.
09/30/2008
ok, my family ate the entire dish in minutes!!!!! it only took max. 10 minutes to make and they ate it all in less time!!! no joke , this may not be the healthiest but for a quick meal with a big family and lots going on this rocked the house! trying to think of ideas to add to make it a bit healthier like : a scoop of crushed flax, puree veggie like carrot or cauliflower etc.. garlic but this was tremendously great! thanks
04/14/2013
This is 5 star based on taste and quick preparation! Presentation is not great. My teenagers looked at it in the pan and said "Oh my gosh, what is it!" But everyone loved it and wanted more. I used 3 packages noodles, 2 packets of seasoning and a little water to compensate for the extra noodles. Very, very, good!!!
01/30/2012
My kids ate this up! I added onion to the beef while it was browning and an extra package of noodles (but not the flavor packet). We will be having this again.
02/16/2008
We enjoyed this easy fixer! I did double the ramen noodles (I found salsa flavored and that worked perfectly)!
10/30/2012
The kids did not like it. Sorry...
08/19/2009
VERY good. I used 2 packets of beef flavored noodles, 1 packet of seasoning, homemade rotel tomatoes and since I didn't have corn I used green beans. I also added several dashes of soy sauce. Someone else mentioned how it isn't an appealing looking dish, and I imagine that it isn't with the corn, but the with green contrast of the beans it was. Tasted good too. Only 4 stars b/c I wouldn't say it was "the Best" but it is definitely yummy and something we'll have again. Next time I think I'll add baby corn, bamboo shoots and water chestnuts.
04/09/2009
I tried this recipe last night because I hadn't been shopping. Everyone loved it and it was soooo easy. Even my daughter, who is 6 and doesn't eat ANYTHING had a healthy spoonful. Will make this again.
02/04/2005
I don't even want to give this one star. I wish I could have posted a picture of my family's face when they ate this. I guess that is what you get...I thought the recipe sounded funny!
05/18/2012
simple fast good
01/14/2013
I have had this in my recipe box forever just waiting to try it out. I wasn't expecting much because hello it's base is ramen noodles. I do like ramen though and all the other ingredients so I figured this would make one of those yummy so bad for you dishes. Well not so much. I made this exactly as specified and it didn't really have any flavor. The only thing you could really taste was canned tomatoes. I will say it was very filling though. I don't think I'll make this again. If I did it require lots of tweaks where I might as well just make something else.
01/28/2013
We loved this recipe - came home from a long trip and tried to pull dinner together from what was in the freezer and pantry. This recipe was perfect I used two packages of ramen and added a little water because I used frozen corn. My husband said he could eat it all night and all 3 kids ages 5 though 9 finished their bowls. Will definitely make again.
06/27/2010
Not bad at all. I used 3 packs of oriental flavor, 1 1/2 lb ground beef, 1 sm can of tomato sauce, a can of beef broth, a little water and some frozen corn and green beans. Quick and easy.

This turned out better than I expected. I substituted frozen corn and added frozen peas & carrots. Used 2 packs of the chicken flavor - was a bit salty - next time I will use 1 pack of seasoning. I also used 1 can of whole tomatoes broken up and a can of tomato sauce rinsed with a can of water. Will make again.

This looks rather unappetizing but tastes pretty darn good. My family ate it all up!

Holy !! This recipe just didnt sound right. I would never think tomatoes and Corn would go good with ramen noodles at all But I was wrong. One thing I didnt understand was the portions of this recipe. I would like some noodles with my ground beef lol So what I did was boil 4 ramen noodles seprate and used only 2 flaver packets. Cooked the beef and when almost done added the tomatoes, corn. I did this too extract the juices. Than drained. Added pepper, minced onion and garlic powder. Next time Im gonna added chopped garlic. Great for Nothin in the house Deal or Being Broke!!:0

This went over very well and was pretty yummy! I didn't add any cheese like some of the reviewers since I didn't have it on hand but my can of tomatoes was mexican flavored which worked well. Thanks for the easy recipe that worked!

I gave this five out five because it was simple, cheap, and quick to throw together with all the items right in your pantry! I did add a tiny bit of water (from the tomato can) and I also added some garlic, seasoning salt, and pepper. When I was about ready to fix plates I sprinkled shredded cheese on top. I was pretty skeptical about it being any good, but it was. Nice recipe!
