Notes
Tips:
- The key to this recipe is ensuring not to overcook the ramen noodles. They will become mushy and stick together if they are overdone.
- Adding the cheese a little sprinkle at a time makes sure that the cheese doesn't stick together in one big clump.
- Sharp cheddar cheese will give you the most flavor, but medium cheddar can be used too.
- Storage: Make sure to store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple of days.
- Reheating: To reheat in the microwave, add a little milk or heavy cream to the bowl and heat 15 seconds, stir and repeat for another 15 seconds or until it is warm. You can also reheat in a saucepan on the stove on medium/low heat with a little extra milk or heavy cream.
