Hear me out:
Top Ramen (I KNOW, just wait)

Green onions - chopped

garlic - diced

baby spinach
Sesame oil (only expensive thing, but you don't need much so it lasts)
egg - scrambled or soft boiled (but that would take more time and another step)
chicken broth (without salt) (Or, just use water)

Get that disgusting Top Ramen out of the packet
Place noodles in bowl
Use either half chicken broth/half water (or if you have salt free chicken broth, use all chicken broth) (or, if want to use just water, just water then)
Microwave for however long until noodles are done

Meanwhile:
Put pan on stove

Medium heat (unless you have cheap pans, then medium/high)
Coat bottom of pan with Sesame oil
Fry garlic and onions - when they are almost done, push them to the side of pan, put in egg and scramble (unless you did soft boiled)

When everything in pan is looking like it's pretty much done, remove from heat, throw baby spinach leaves on top, and mix everything together.

Grab those disgusting noodles out of microwave.

Toss them into pan mixture - stir everything together

You can use the "spices" in the Top Ramen packet, but maybe only half or less of it.

You can also add some of that hot sauce that comes in a red bottle - forget what it's called, to add some heat to it.

Eat.

If you got a pack of Top Ramen, you could do this every day (or as long as you can stand it) for a week. It would cost you about $20 total.

Bonus: If you are wealthy enough to have meat lying around, (and you're not a meat hater), then add in chunks of already cooked chicken into the pan mixture just before you take off the burner to add in the spinach.

It almost feels like you're getting genuine Top Ramen - not the nasty packaged crap that you can get for 25 cents a package at the grocery store.
