The veggies are tossed in frozen, so no need to thaw or precook them. If you'd rather use a single vegetable, frozen peas or frozen corn on their own are both good, and even frozen broccoli florets work if you chop them small. Fresh vegetables work too, they just need a head start. Saute chopped carrots, celery, or onion for 4 to 5 minutes after the beef comes out and before the water goes in.
Beef, oriental, chili, pretty much any flavored ramen noodle package will work. Feel free to mix flavors however you want.
