Cameron Diaz’s Whatever-You-Got-Ramen is the best lazy meal

Who knew A-listers were so resourceful?

If you’re mulling over ordering takeout and making yourself a hearty ramen, you’re not alone. Cameron Diaz apparently also had this dilemma at some point, which is probably why she came up with the most versatile ramen recipe. The actor’s Whatever-You-Got Ramen is a quick, hassle-free ramen you can throw together with whatever you have in your pantry. Now that’s what we call a lazy meal.

“I call this: Whatever-you-got Ramen! One of my favourite quick go-to meals where I take your classic instant ramen packet and dress it up a bit with whatever vegetables I happen to have in my fridge! Below is what I used in my ramen, but feel free to use whatever you have that fits your flavour profile & enjoy!” Diaz wrote on Instagram.
 

Ingredients:

• 2 ramen packs (Flavours: Lemongrass Ginger and Garlic pepper)
