Slow Cooker Ground Beef Ramen

Thaw the beef safely in the refrigerator before browning it. Do not put frozen ground beef directly into the slow cooker.

Can I use different noodles?

Yes! Fresh ramen, thin egg noodles, or other quick-cooking noodles can work. Adjust the cooking time according to the package instructions.

Can I make it ahead?

Yes. Cook the beef and sauce ahead of time, refrigerate promptly, and add freshly cooked ramen noodles when reheating for the best texture.

Can I store leftovers?

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container within 2 hours and use within 3–4 days. The noodles will absorb broth as they sit, so add extra broth when reheating.
