Ingredients

- 1 (3 ounce) package chicken-flavored ramen noodles
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Directions
Step 1: Break the ramen noodles into smaller pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl. Add the water and frozen vegetable mix.
Step 2: Microwave the noodles and vegetables on high for 7 minutes, until the noodles are tender and the vegetables are heated through.
Step 3: While the noodles are cooking, whisk together the egg, mayonnaise, and the seasoning packet from the ramen in a large bowl until smooth.
Step 4: Temper the egg mixture by slowly adding 1/4 cup of the hot water from the cooked noodles, whisking constantly until fully combined. Repeat with another 1/4 cup to ensure the egg is partially cooked and fully incorporated.
Step 5: Pour in the remaining noodle liquid along with the cooked noodles, stirring gently to combine.
Step 6: Let the mixture sit for about 3 minutes, allowing the noodles to absorb most of the liquid and the flavors to meld together.
Step 7: Divide the creamy ramen into 2 bowls and serve immediately, enjoying a comforting and quick meal.
