I'm 100% sympathetic to the "I want to not eat out but it's a chore to cook".
Ovens, pressure cookers, and rice cookers are absolutely wonderful because of how set and check back later they are.
Dressing up even simple foods like ramen with blanched leafy vegetables, poached eggs and some ham is fun.
Furikake is a great way to add a bit of flavoring to white rice. Alternatively some soy sauce and sesame oil are both good pairings for rice and ramen as appropriate.
Wraps can be fun too and may be a nice alternative to bread.
Ramen toppings is one of the only things that saved my sanity in college. I used to poach an egg in the broth while the noodles cooked. Added sushi nori cut into strips, frozen precooked shrimp, frozen corn or peas, and sweet chili sauce where a lot of my faves. Hmm... I wonder if I have any ramen in the cupboard now?
In Canada at least most groceries stores with have frozen mixed vegetables in ‘Asian’ or California’ mixes. Great for a quick ramen stir fry.
