Ramen noodles aren’t just for college students. Not only are they cheap, but they also work in a wide variety of dishes. Leftover pork is perfect when thinly sliced and added to your noodles so next time, skip the takeout and try cooking some spicy pork noodles for yourself.
Make sure to slice the meat extra thin to get the most out of your pork loin.
