    Work expensive ingredients with inexpensive ingredients – make something like this Ground Beef & Ramen Stirfry

    For years, I have preached pairing ‘expensive’ ingredients with less expensive ones.

    Thanks to recent inflation (2021-2022), the beef prices have sky-rocketed and I know find myself making meals like this one.

    Ramen is cheaper than pasta…about the same price as rice. 

    This is a fun and simple way to do quick stir-fry dinner!

    How to Make Ground Beef & Ramen Stir-fry

    Slice some fresh ginger and saute with the ground beef, minced onion and garlic powder.

    Option: replace the fresh ginger with 1 tsp ground ginger.

    Once browned stir in the Asian sauce.

    Sauce ideas: stir-fry sauce, teriyaki sauce, or a plum sauce. Really, any will work!

    Love that Ramen only takes 3 minutes to cook!
