Mongolian Ground Beef Noodles

Storage and Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water to loosen the sauce, or microwave in short intervals until heated through.

The beef sauce can also be prepared separately several days ahead and combined with freshly cooked noodles when ready to serve.

Frequently Asked Questions
