43 Unusual Noodle Dishes

From Overloaded Pasta Pies to Nifty Noodle Sandwiches

— November 6, 2013 — Unique
Being able to follow the directions to make instant noodles by just adding water is more than enough cooking for some, but more adventurous chefs will want to try these noodle dishes that use this simple meal as the basis for more complex culinary creations.

Pasta is an inexpensive and tasty college student food, but these noodle recipes help to make this staple much more exciting. Although some of these noodle concoctions are a little bizarre, they make it possible to enjoy multiple comfort foods in a single bite.

Noodles can be dressed up with an endless amount of sauces and flavourings, but they're even more versatile than you'd think. Did you ever think that they could become the crust of a pizza, the bread for a sandwich or even the cake part of a cupcake?
