What Is Skinny Fat? How to Fix It, Examples, & More

Read MoreIf you think ramen noodles are just for broke college students, think again.
There’s a good reason ramen has been making a comeback of late, with world-renowned chefs taking it to new heights. There are even entire restaurants devoted exclusively to ramen.
So if you ditched noodle soup the day you graduated school, you should really give ramen another try.
And don’t worry–these ramen recipes don’t involve microwaveable Styrofoam cups or powdered flavor pucks. Instead, they feature fresh ingredients such as vegetables, chicken, tofu, and homemade broth.
They’re also packed with flavors ranging from spicy chili bean paste to bacon, kimchi, miso, sesame, and garlic, which means they can satisfy a range of diet preferences, from the devout carnivore (think Mongolian Beef with Ramen Noodles), to the seafood lover (see: Stir-Fried Ramen Noodles with Fish Cakes), to the meat- and dairy-free (check out the Easy Vegan Ramen Bowl).
Enjoy!
Enjoy two go-to convenience foods in one with this bowl of ramen. Rather than using the powdered flavoring it comes with, make this quick sauce to disguise your ramen as mac ‘n’ cheese.
Begin by mixing melted butter and flour together, stir in the milk, and then slowly add your favorite kind of shredded cheese. Stir in salt and other seasonings like Sriracha to taste, and dig in.

If you can’t find packaged rice cakes, called garaetteok, in an Asian grocery store, you can make a dough from rice flour and steam them. The other option is to leave rice cakes out of the stew altogether, which won’t affect the flavor.

This recipe relies on familiar ingredients: garlic, onions, and a mix of light and dark soy sauces. The difference between the two sauces is how long they’re aged, giving the darker one more time to develop a slightly richer, sweeter flavor.
So if you just have one kind of soy sauce on hand, don’t stress buying another bottle. And instead of hunting down fish cakes, called kamaboko in Japanese, you can use another protein like sliced chicken breast, pork loin, or tofu.

What gives the noodles a yellow color and springier texture compared to something like spaghetti is the kansui, an alkaline solution.
If you can’t get your hands on that, simply use baking soda instead. Since it’s powdered sodium bicarbonate, one of the two minerals in kansui, it’ll affect the dough in a similar way.

And what if you didn’t have to gorge yourself just to gain muscle and didn’t have to put on pounds and pounds of ugly fat, either?
In short, what if I told you that proper dieting--whether you want to maximize fat loss or muscle growth--is much simpler and more enjoyable than you’ve been led to believe?

Some popular pre-workouts are all-natural. Some contain the right mix of high-quality ingredients. Some provide clinically effective doses. But only Pulse checks each of these boxes.
Pulse doesn’t just “contain natural ingredients''—every ingredient is naturally sourced from plants and animals. Pulse contains no artificial or synthetic substances of any kind.
Every serving of Pulse contains 15.1 grams of active ingredients that have been shown to be safe and effective in peer-reviewed scientific research.
Every active ingredient in Pulse is backed by published scientific studies that show benefits in healthy humans.
Pulse contains no harsh stimulants that wind you up and burn you out. Instead, it contains a 1:1 ratio of caffeine and L-theanine, which produces a smooth energy rush and comfortable comedown.
We carefully examined 508 pages of scientific research to find out exactly what should and shouldn’t be in a pre-workout drink.
Every bottle of Pulse is guaranteed to provide exactly what the label claims and nothing else—no heavy metals, microbes, allergens, or other contaminants.
While these types of chemicals may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of them may indeed be harmful to our health. And that’s why we don’t put any of them into our products.
Before you buy a sports supplement, you should know that it's clean, safe, and transparent. And that's exactly what Labdoor's third-party testing and certification means.
