Microwave Ramen with Vegetables

Step 1: Prepare vegetables

Fill a microwave-safe mug or bowl with frozen vegetables about a quarter of the way. Add enough water to reach the top of the vegetables.

Step 2: First seasoning

Pour in half of the seasoning packet from the ramen and stir.

Step 3: First microwaving

Microwave for 2 minutes. After this time, stir to eliminate any hot spots.

Step 4: Add noodles

Add the broken-up ramen noodles to the bowl and mix well to ensure all noodles are wet.

Step 5: Second seasoning

Add the other half of the seasoning packet, a bit of black pepper, and garlic powder to taste. Mix again.

Step 6: Final microwaving

Cover the bowl with a wet, wrung-out paper towel and microwave for another 2 minutes.

Step 7: Final touch

Let the bowl sit in the steam for 30 to 40 seconds. Remove the paper towel, stir, top with fresh green onions, and serve.
