boil the CHEAPEST spaghetti
get the CHEAPEST ketchup
get the CHEAPEST hotdogs


dump the ketchup over the noodles and toss on two boiled hotdogs and go to town!

wouldn't it be cheaper to just get a can of spaghetti and microwave it? just saying is all...lol

I'd rather eat ramen for like 10 cents.

i have never ate ramen before...is it any good?

I think I'm gonna throw up....

i pass ramen up it is loaded with salt and its bad for u!

cuz cheap noodles and hot dogs with ketchup is soooo much better for you. Hot dogs are LOADED with fat and salt.

It may not be all that good FOR you....but...in a pinch..Ramen is damn tasty.

It helps that it's as cheap as dirt...lol

cheap spaghetti white bread--2 thickish slices, crusts removed
spaghetti--a thick handful, about 4 ounces or so
butter--a thick slice
olive oil
bacon--2 slices of lean center-cut
parsley--a small bunch, the leaves only, roughly chopped

Whiz the bread to rough crumbs in a food processor, or grate it by hand. It won't hurt at all (in fact it will be a bonus) if some of the crumbs are on the large side. Put a big pot of water on to boil, salt it generously, and shove in the pasta. Let it cook [according to the package directions], till it is tender but chewy.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a frying pan with a little olive oil to stop it burning. Cut the bacon into short pieces and fry it in the butter till its fat is golden and the kitchen smells wonderful. Scoop the bacon out with a slotted spoon into a large, warm serving bowl. Add a bit more butter and oil to the butter and bacon fat in the pan and tip in the bread crumbs. Stir them from time to time in the sizzling butter till they have turned a rich gold. You need to keep an eye on them because they appear as if they are never going to brown, then suddenly they are almost black.

Drain the pasta and toss it with the hot crumbs and any of their butter, the bacon, and the parsley, plus a little olive oil to moisten and flavor.

Two words......Chef Boyardee.It's 89 cents a can at Big Lots.

just dont add all the seasoning in the package and dont put salt in the water for the noodles. i even use less water so its less like soup and try putting your hot dogs in that, i've added meat to my noodles before and it was really good and something different. I usually use the leftover italian beef and add alittle green onion, thats good.

Yes it is.....I take them to work for lunch sometimes. Break up the noodles in the package and add way less water that what's called for. Quick, cheap and easy.


Someone said only use 1/2 the seasonings.....that makes sense too.
