Hamburger Ramen Noodle Skillet (+Video)
Ramen Noodle Skillet Supper uses affordable ramen noodles with ground beef and veggies to create the most flavorful and simple stir fry!
A FAMILY FAVORITE DINNER
This ramen noodle skillet meal is something just a bit different than my usual weeknight meals. It’s super simple to make and you only need one pan and five ingredients. Plus, you get lots of good, flavorful veggies in there too! It also reheats well if you have leftovers.
TIPS FOR MAKING THIS EASY ONE PAN MEAL:
- For those of you with salt or sodium sensitivities, you can replace the beef packets and water in this recipe with low sodium beef broth.
- Ground turkey can be substituted for the ground beef. Or just leave the meat out entirely if you prefer.
- Try making this with other flavors of ramen noodles like chicken, soy sauce or vegetable ramen.
- This really is a whole meal in one so it doesn’t really need a side dish. However, if you’d like, try serving it with a homemade Asian Milk Bread.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
- ground beef
- water
- beef-flavor ramen noodles (with seasoning packets)
- stir fry sauce
- frozen stir fry vegetables
Keep the packets that are included with the ramen noodles. You’ll need those in a bit.
HOW TO MAKE HAMBURGER RAMEN NOODLE SKILLET:

I'm always in search of new recipes. I made this exactly to the recipe instructions and it turned out perfect. Was easy and something I can see us making often.
I am always looking for new and easy ideas for dinner. After being married 28 years with 3 teenagers still living at home, my creativity has run dry in the cooking department, but they still need to eat!
I would love to win the Gooseberry cookbook because my husband is the world's most fussy eater, and I have to constantly find new and interesting things to prepare for dinner, especially those stove top one-pan dinners that I can hide the foods he won't eat in. Please help me.

I would absolutely love this cookbook. I love.cookbooks and this one seems to be right up my alley. Simple and easy are the way I go being a young mom and newlywed.
I'd love to win this because I do all the cooking in the house, and I get tired of the same five recipes every week! And I can only take ordering a pizza for so long. -.- Anything to break up this food monotony would be amazing.
I have 7 kiddos who eat ramen noodles all the time. I would love to be able to make a something different and still save some money on groceries……
As a single working Mom of 4 – I love recipes like this. Only 5 ingredients and affordable? YES! Thank you for sharing recipes that let me easily cook for my kids without picking up fast food. This was delicious!

This was SO good. I was surprised with so few ingredients but we loved it! Wouldn’t change a thing!

I don't cook a lot, but when I do it is usually one or two dishes for the meal. I like having leftovers for other meals. The Quick & Easy section sounds perfect for me. Thanks for the suggestion to use low-sodium beef packets.
My daughter is getting married in just under two weeks (EEEKKKK!!!) and this would be great for her since she is just starting out and needs to start easy and work her way up! (bjk715@hotmail.com)
