Ingredients
1 pack instant ramen (discard seasoning)
½ lb ground beef
1 tbsp taco seasoning
1 tbsp oil
4 slices of thick bread (sourdough or Texas toast work best)
4 slices cheddar cheese
2 tbsp butter, softened
Optional: sliced jalapeños, chopped cilantro, hot sauce
Instructions
Cook ramen: Boil noodles until just tender, drain, and set aside.
Brown the beef: In a skillet, cook ground beef with taco seasoning until fully browned. Set aside.
Crisp the noodles: In the same pan, add a bit of oil and lightly fry the noodles until they’re golden and slightly crispy.
Assemble the sandwich: Butter one side of each bread slice. On the unbuttered side, layer cheese, taco beef, crispy ramen, more cheese, then top with another slice of bread.
Grill it up: In a skillet over medium heat, grill sandwiches until bread is golden and cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Serve: Slice and enjoy with your favorite hot sauce or taco toppings.
