Garlic Beef Noodle Bowls – an Asian style noodle bowl with lots of garlic, that is ready in just minutes! Great for busy nights.

We just got back from a quick weekend in Wisconsin. It was a long drive for a weekend, but it was worth it. We had my grandpa’s funeral on Saturday and spread his (and my grandma’s) ashes afterwards. We looked at flights, but it was at least $600 a person for us to fly. So we drove the 14 hours each way.

We have done that drive many times, so it wasn’t horrible, but usually we are there for longer, so it doesn’t seem as bad. Are you a road trip family? Or will you fly no matter what the cost? I really wanted to fly, but when I added it up, I just couldn’t do it! Last minute prices are just brutal.

I am kind of excited for these garlic beef noodle bowls today. I have made these noodle bowls a few times for my family, and they absolutely love them. Anything with garlic and soy sauce is kind of a hit at our house; Chow Mein Noodles with Chicken is on repeat around here. This Pepper Steaks looks like a must try for sure.

What noodles you use, is pretty much up to you. I used udon noodles this time, but you can use lo mein, linguine, Chinese egg noodles, or pretty much anything. Costco sells a package of udon noodles in their refrigerated section, we love them. It comes with 6 small packages of noodles inside. I use 4 of them to make this recipe. They cook in about 2 minutes, so are perfect for a quick and easy dinner. If you have Lo Mein on hand you can also make Chicken Lo Mein for an easy dinner.

I love dinner that is ready in minutes. These garlic beef noodle bowls come together in about 15 minutes, which is perfect for busy weeknights. Slicing the beef takes the most amount of time. Depending on the noodles you use, they can be done in anything from 2-10 minutes. Don’t have noodles? Try Mongolian Beef.

While they cook, you make the beef. Then mix it all together for a minute before you serve. Sometimes Asian style recipes can call for hard to find ingredients, but this uses only things you will find in your local grocery store. Soy sauce and sesame oil are the most “exotic” ingredients called for. Even with common ingredients, you get a super flavorful and delicious dinner. I have made this at least 3 times already, and it is already being requested again.

Some of my favorite kitchen items to use in this recipe are:

Pots and Pans – A good set of pots and pans is a must! You want the food to cook evenly, and the pans to last for years and years! I have had these Calphalon Comtempory pans for many years, and I will love them.

Knives: A good set of kitchen knives is essential for preparing any meal. We splurged on these Global knives about 14 years ago, and to this day they are still my favorite. These are hands down my favorite knives I have owned.

Cutting Board: For me this is a kitchen must-have and kitchen counter saver. While we have counter tops you can cut on, I find that this extra step will preserve my counter. I personally love the Epicurean cutting boards, because they clean up so easily, and you never have to worry about food getting stuck in the groves.
