Ramen noodles with cheesy tomato sauce

A nice, quick meal that my husband and I enjoyed. It's similar to my spaghetti-style Ramen, but I made my own tomato sauce with milk and shredded cheese, rather than using a pre-made one.

Ingredients:
  • 2 blocks Ramen noodles
  • 6 ounces tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon basil or oregano
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan or Italian blend cheese
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup water

1. Stir the tomato paste, milk, and water together in a small pot over medium heat.
2. Add the shredded cheese. I increased the heat slightly after doing this in order to help the cheese melt.
3. Stir occasionally for two or three minutes, then reduce the heat to low. Add the salt, garlic powder, and basil/oregano.
4. Cook the packs of Ramen noodles one-by-one in a small pot or together in a medium pot. Drain, then serve onto two plates. Divide the sauce equally among each, then toss the noodles until they are covered.
