Getting down to the bare minimum so I was trying to make things a little bit extra. $1.89 beef stick from the truck stop that I could walk to within a few miles, plus a dollar 29 cheese crackers. I elevated my game by cooking my ramen Al dente and removing it from my skillet. Then I sliced up my meat product and fried it until it produced a little bit of Grease. Threw the news on top of that and sprinkled half a packet of seasoning from the Roma packet on top. I broke up the cheese and cracker package and put it on top for texture and additional cheesiness flavor. I'm definitely not going to lie here and say it was absolutely delicious. I often like to fry my ramen and some real butter or margarine regardless, because it always adds to the flavor-the cheap meat stick did the same thing in I'm a happy camper tonight.

I'm serious this was a good comfort meal tonight.

3 eggs, crushed up tortilla chips and Crystal. I might consider it struggle without the hot.sauce. Any hot sauce can take a struggle and enhance it.

I reused a 1.25 pack of takis that I had crushed up a couple days before the sprinkle on some ramen ( I like texture). Everything was sourced from dollar stores besides the onion. I really like hot dogs with onions mustard and ketchup, I even like mustard and onions on chili dogs. So if you just mix up diced onions with mustard, they keep a lot longer in the refrigerator and smell much less, if at all. Onions are pain when you cut them up and store them in the refrigerator, and typically the only thing I found that keeps them from smelling, it's to wrap some form of plastic (whether it's a baggie or whatever), over top the bowl before placing the lid on top. Water can work too, but in this instance the mustard just takes care of it all. If they get runny just pour the excess water out and add some more mustard, no continue to be good for a while.

I did also add two packets of Parmesan cheese that I got from the gas station near my house to increase the cheesiness a little bit. My little corn creation I call the incredible hulk, but I only like it when the takis are crispy- so I have to eat it relatively soon because after the fact it becomes sog- and that's no bueno for me
