"College... Those were the days. By the time I graduated, I was a world class chef when it came to giving Ramen noodles a flair and gourmet taste! Of several, there is one recipe that I still enjoy. Its amazing what masterpeices you can make with a few simple and cheap ingredients. This soup can be modified to fit your taste and is simple and cheap enough that you can experiment with any thing you please- just open your fridge and let your mind go wild!"

I love to cook! I am a full time nurse and enjoy meals that can last a couple of days and be modified when you don't have the exact ingredients you need. My taste are very simple and despite a time constraint, I try to make everything from scratch. If my recipes are posted, please enjoy!
