I just returned from a weekend trip to Omaha and it was a blast. I enjoyed time with my mama as it was just us girls. Let's just say...we ate, we shopped, we ate, we shopped, did I mention eating and shopping! This was the leftovers from the first night in Omaha...it just got out of hand after that...hahaha.
The whole trip though, I was excited to get home to try out this recipe. I found it on the Food Network and just couldn't resist using ramen noodles for a dessert. In college, I lived on them. In fact, my husband and I still eat them when we don't feel like a heavy dinner, but love the spice of the chili-flavored ones.
I hope that the name has intrigued and not turned you off. This turned out to be something like a rice pudding - only instead of the texture of small rice, there is the long, thin texture of a noodle. It tastes good warm, but can also be eaten ice cold.
I hope you enjoy!
