Full Meal Only $2.00: Ramen, Jalapeno Chicken, Hot Oil

Jalapeno Chicken & Ramen

One of my favorite budget meals is Jalapeno Chicken and ramen.  The chicken is purchased fully cooked and flavored from my local $1.00 scoop restaurant.   Cook two packs of ramen as you normally would with only one packet of chicken seasoning.  Once finished, add in chicken, stir, cover, and let sit a few minutes until the chicken warms up.  Uncover and add hot oil.   I usually add half of the chicken purchased, which is a full day’s worth of protein.  My stomach is full every time.

• Two packs of ramen $.50
• Half container of jalapeno chicken $1.25
• one container of hot oil $.25
