Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb 93/7 lean ground beef
  • 4 cups broccoli florets about 1 large head
  • 3 cloves garlic minced (garlic builds the savory base)
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated (ginger cuts the richness — don't skip it)
  • 3 tbsp coconut aminos or low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 cups cooked cauliflower rice for serving
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds + sliced green onions for topping

Method
 

  1. Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes, breaking it into small crumbles.
  2. Drain the fat, push the beef to the side, and cook the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds.
  3. Stir in the coconut aminos and honey, add the broccoli and 2 tbsp water, cover, and steam 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  4. Uncover, drizzle with sesame oil, toss, and serve over cauliflower rice topped with sesame seeds and green onions.
