Are ramen noodles ok to eat during lent?

Yes. Lent forbids the use of meat, but not of eggs, milk products or condiments made of animal fat. So cook Ramen noodles on a different way without meat.

Lent is a season of forty days, not counting Sundays, which begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Holy Saturday. The forty days represents the time Jesus spent in the wilderness, enduring the temptation of Satan and preparing to begin his ministry.

Lent is a time of repentance, fasting and preparation for the coming of Easter. It is a time of self-examination and reflection. In the early church, Lent was a time to prepare new converts for baptism. Today, Christians focus on their relationship with God, often choosing to give up something or to volunteer and give of themselves for others.

Lenten season is just around the corner, and for many, that means giving up meat on Friday. Check out meatless family meals for Lent from CatholicMom.com.
