What does everyone here do to make their instant ramen more interesting?

Add toppings, lots of cheap things you can buy and store in the fridge.

Make an aroma oil and tare, this really elevates your ramen game. Tare typically requires ingredients most people don't have and can't be bothered to find but even a simple soy sauce tare can be done and jarred easily. An aroma oil is the easiest fucking thing, just fry sliced shallots in a neutral cooking oil and spoon it up into your ramen after you've poured your tare and before/after you pour the instant broth.

make it from scratch cause it ends up costing about the same and not giving you fucking kidney stones.
It's pretty low effort food.

Fried Egg.

A slice of American cheese. It just melts into the broth, really good with chicken or beef.

A spoonful or few of peanut butter in shrimp flavored. Kind of like pad thai I guess.

Splash of vinegar, sesame oil and hot pepper for a quick and dirty hot and sour soup

I cook some onions and leftover meat,(usually pork) and add some garlic, tejin and lemon. Then I render some of the fat from the meat in to the broth. Then I add peanut butter and at the last minute crack an egg and add some sesame oil. I cook the noodles separately to get rid of some of the starch and drain then really well. After bowling I top it off with the rest of the leftover meat, cilantro, green onions and some nanami togarashi. It's a work in progress, and it's a shit load of salt but meh.

as far as toppings go I'll add an egg (poached or soft-boiled), chopped chives/green onions, kimchi, leftover meat from the other day, and then some sort of chili oil or paste (idk miso, gochujang, whatever is lying around). The best thing I standby is using broth instead of water; I'll make a large batch of chicken stock with a carcass, vegetable scraps, and a fat knob of ginger, keeping most of the fat in. I just pull a few ice cubes of that out whenever I want to make ramen.
