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.

    One dish, stovetop dinners! I get so bored cooking the same old thing, but I am also very much into easy.

    My hubby is the cook in the family and he's become disabled. I am in need of some new ideas because I am very much stuck in a rut. Love your blog! It is making me feel more confident about cooking with these small successes 🙂

  3. I would love to win the Gooseberry Patch recipe book. My nickname all growing up was Gooseberry ( My maiden name was Goldsberry). Not that that has anything to do with Why I want to win, but just wanted to throw that out there :o). I work full time, and my husband who is disabled is home all day and won't eat until I get home. Most of the time I am so darn tired from work that I just give in and go out to eat. I can't afford to keep doing that. I need some quick good meals for us to enjoy. PS I love your blog and have made so many wonderful things from it.

  4. With baby girl #2 on the way, I've been in a cooking rut because I'm so exhausted, so I'm particularly thrilled about the quick stovetop recipes!

  5. One reason I would like to win this cookbook is because I love to read cookbooks and mark the new recipes I want to try! This one would be a great one to try for quick stovetop recipes. Thanks for the opportunity!

    1. I have been collecting Gooseberry Patch cookbooks for years. I just love them. This would be a nice addition to my collection, plus easy stovetop recipes are my favorite ones to prepare. Easy and quick. Thanks for bringing such good recipes to all of us who love to cook.

  6. I found your website thru Pinterest, and I love it. I've already made a
    few of the recipes. My family has loved everything I've made. I would like to win the "Recipe Book ". because my son and his fiance are planning on getting married soon and their money will be a little tight at first. I think recipes like the ones I've found would definitely help them to stay on budget and still eat good…. Thanks so much, Genece Miller @ traesmom@yahoo.com

  7. I like new recipes and I collect cookbooks and we love oodles of noodles so this would be a book we would use all the time
