"With my ramen, I used to just add some frozen vegetables in with it. Peas, corn, carrots, etc. Always made it slightly healthier, and it tastes good too."
Our friend at Debt Free Divas shared a recipe from college days. She would add broccoli florets and chopped hot dogs to her ramen.

"In my family, it's common place to crack in an egg [whether you want to leave it intact, like a poaching; or mess it up, like egg drop soup; or REALLY MESS IT UP, and make it an eggy soup.], and add baby spinach or any other leafy vegetable, fish cakes or balls [that you could get at a Chinese market].
More recently.... Siracha sauce!"
