Black-bean-style noodles with sliced seared beef

Chapagetti Protein Bowl

Build the bowl into a more complete meal without burying the ramen underneath the upgrade. Keep the seasoning clear, then let the added protein bring structure and substance.

Why You'll Love This Upgrade

Cooked chicken, tofu, or sliced beef turns Chapagetti into a more substantial meal while keeping the savory black-bean sauce at the center. Use 85 g cooked protein cut into bite-size pieces so it warms quickly and picks up the sauce.
