The other day, I was at Dollar General buying a Coke Zero. There was a forty-ish couple in front of me and they purchase the following items.
1) 2 cans of Vienna Sausages
2) A 6 pack of Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodles
3) 1 loaf of White Bread
4) 1 two pack of Vanilla Zingers
I thought it was a very odd combo. Later when I ask Gretchen to guess what items this couple had purchased, she guessed, "Ramen noodles, ......Vienna Sausages, peanuts and some kind of snack cake." Pretty good guess. I suppose DG isn't known for gourmet food. Anyhow, we started coming up with names of things they could make with their "Yellow Dollar General Mystery Chopped Basket."
Now I challenging my readers to come with a meal using the aforementioned items. I will let Gretchen choose the best one and I will cook and eat that meal. I will report on how the dinner goes and give the creation a 1 thru 5 star rating. Good Luck. I look forward to your creations. .
Cut the bottom of the Zingers to open them up like a hot dog bun and place a few of the vienna sausages inside. After cooking the Ramen, drain the broth and place cooked noodles on the bread for a Ramen sandwich.
ReplyDeleteYou now have a two course meal. A Vienna Zinger dog and a Ramen sandwich.
uhhhh all I can say is that I hope there are more entries.
DeleteYou could make a Manhattan type dish.
ReplyDeleteCook the Ramen. Cut up the vienna sausages and put in the noodles. Place two slices of bread on a plate. Pour the sausage/Ramen noodles over the bread (after draining). Then crumble a Zinger to sprinkle crumbs over top.
Interesting
DeleteCan it only include these ingrediants?

You may add ingredients but the 4 above must be the stars of the plate
DeleteSometimes I have to go to the store and pick up things that are...embarassing or odd to purchase together. I have picked up toilet paper and chilli beans because there was a sale or whatever. I have always thought well I am going to do it and no one will notice because they are busy with their own lives and the cashiers are too busy to care. Thanks Shane, THANKS.

Deletehehe Chili beans and toilet paper. That makes me laugh. Normally I wouldn't notice cuz I'm lost in my brain somewhere but on this day I was unusually aware.
DeleteTake the chicken flavoring and add it to boiling water and let it reduce while adding crumbled up white bread. In a separate pot, cook the noodles as directed. Place the noodles in a pan and top with the reduction and place in the oven. Chop the Zingers up in a food processor and use as breading on the Sausage and then deep fry them. Take the noodles out oven place the sausage on top and serve.--Mom
ReplyDeleteThanks Mom. Sounds healthy.
