Ingredients

pounds ground beef

1 large onion, finely diced

1 tablespoon minced garlic

2 tablespoons sesame oil

½ cup carrots, peeled and finely shredded

16 ounces coleslaw mix

½ teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

1½ teaspoons ground ginger

½¾ cup low sodium soy sauce (start with ½ cup and adjust to taste)

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Green onions, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

In a large deep skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until no longer pink. Avoid breaking the meat into small crumbles—keep larger pieces for texture.

Drain the grease and return the skillet to the stovetop. Add diced onions and minced garlic, cooking until onions are soft and translucent.

Stir in sesame oil, shredded carrots, and coleslaw mix. Use tongs to toss and combine evenly. Cook for about 5 minutes.

In a small bowl, whisk together onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, ground ginger, soy sauce, and vegetable oil.

Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and stir everything together.

Reduce heat and let cook for an additional 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Garnish with green onions if desired, and serve hot.

Notes

Keep the ground beef in larger pieces for a more satisfying, hearty texture.

Adjust soy sauce to taste, especially if you’re watching sodium levels.

Optional: serve over rice or cauliflower rice for a complete meal.

Great for meal prep—just store in separate containers and reheat with a splash of soy sauce.
