I break the noodles up, as someone described above, then boil them, toss out the water and sprinkle the seasoning mix over them, stir to distribute the seasoning, add scallions, mushrooms, leeks, shallots, garlic, green peppers, or whatever veggies I have in my fridge, maybe some tuna or leftover shicken, ham, etc.
Ramen noodles have gotten me through times of little money quite a lot. The man is a hero, but until I read the obit, I didn't know it.
RIP, Mr. Noodle. There's a special place in heaven for you.

After reading the above messages, It seems clear that we could start a thread on Ramen noodle recipes. There's so much room for creativity with the stuff.
