Annie Chun's Spring Vegetable Ramen Soup

I'm always down for ramen! Be it in soup, salad or entree; I love me some ramen. Annie Chun's newest (well, new to me) instant soup, Spring Vegetable Ramen, is a packet of soft ramen with a flavor packet. To fix, all you have to do is warm up the noodles, drain, add the flavor packet along with water and then microwave. Pretty easy and painless.

So, overall the soup is easy to make. One drawback is that you need your own bowl, which can suck if you are at work or not at home. Taste-wise, I was a little disappointed in the flavor of the flavor packet. It had a very dark taste if that makes any sense. I like my broth a little herbier, and this wasn't it. Thankfully, the soft ramen noodles make up for the off flavor.

In closing, I think this is a decent quick soup assuming you have a bowl. Also, I wasn't very impressed by the broth, but it might be more to your liking. Give it a try!

  

Annie Chun's Garlic Scallion Noodle Bowl

A while back someone on the Laziest Vegans FB Page suggested I try an Annie Chun's product since many are Vegan. I've seen them in the store before but for whatever reason I never got one. I checked out all of the different Vegan options and decided on the Garlic and Scallion Noodle Bowl.

First of all I have to come out and say that this is the laziest meal EVER. You put some noodles (already soft) in a bowl, add a cup of water and put it in the microwave. Then when it's done you drain the noodles and pour the sauce packet on top. Easy/lazy dorm food.

Taste-wise I thought it was decent. It seem more like emergency food to me than an actually dinner. It definitely had a garlic/ soy sauce flavor going on. The noodles were nice and moist. You wouldn't want to eat it every day but I found it enjoyable. It's funny to not have to boil the noodles for once. Also, it isn't much to look at but that's to be expected. So if you are in a jam, keep one of these in your pantry and you'll have some excellent emergency Vegan food!
