That is the question of the day.
Pertaining to my cup noodles pictured. I added two eggs before addign boiling water. Eggs certainly made the cup noodles more filling and more delicious. Not to mention that eggs are a good and affordable source of proteins.
So why am I still up at this ungodly hour (it is 2:00 in the mornign in Manila)?
Well, I finished my shift at 12midnight and figured I wanted to do some cleaning and tidying up here at my condominium unit. Got hungry so decided to have cup noodles.
So is this a late midnight snack or an early breakfast?
What say you myLot community?

Just a late midnight snack.
My favourite time for eating.
I do cup noodles a lot.
I have never added eggs to them.
Must try that.

Tell me what you think about adding eggs to your cup noodles.
Midnight snacks just hit differently.

Not exactly my own boss but close to it.
Eggs are superfood in my opinion.

My daughter mentioned eating her noodles like that. It looks so gross to me hopefully it doesn’t offend you as well eat different things and I’m sure plenty I eat would gross you out. I stopped eating meat and eggs when I was 7. It took me over 20 years to be able to bring myself to eat eggs. I can’t eat them though unless they are very well done.

I see what you mean. My mom needs her eggs well-done as well so she can eat it.

It's a late snack. You'll be hungry again by morning.
Have a good night.

It depends on whether or not you will eat again after you get up. Do they eggs fully cook with your cuppa noodles? I might give that a try. It looks like the yolk is not cooked but maybe you could close the lid and poach them.

The eggs are a bit runny which is fien by me for this particular dish. If it was sunny side up eggs, I want the egg fuly cooked.

Maybe a midnight snack if you go to sleep and eat again when you wake up??

Midnight snack cause you will probably break your fast after you sleep awhile.

The price of eggs has gone up so much (at least here in the US) that I'm not sure if they qualify as an "affordable source of protein" anymore! haha
My vote is to count that as a late night snack.

Eggs are more affordable compared to other sources of protein here in the Philippines.

Good point.
I usually spend an hour winding down. No mobile phones for me during this time. I just lay down and wait to drift to sleep.
