Just like that, your simple bowl of ramen goes from hearty snack to a satisfying meal — and all it takes is an egg.

Why You Should Use This Instant Upgrade

When you’re craving a filling bowl of noodle soup that can hold its weight as a meal, protein is what you want to get the job done. An egg is the easiest way to make it happen. Go for a fried or poached egg, and let the runny yolk add a silky coating to the noodles and richness to the broth.

How to Make It

Prepare the instant ramen according to the package instructions. Pour into a bowl and top with hard-boiled, soft-boiled, poached, or fried egg.
