Ground beef is cooked with loads of vegetables and the most delicious Korean sauce then served over rice for a healthy, easy, quick, tasty meal.
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 2 cups zucchini, sliced
- 1 cup matchstick carrots (or small diced)
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 bunch green onions, sliced and divided
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sesame oil

- 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Sriracha sauce, for garnish (optional)
- Cooked white or brown rice (about 2 cups)
Instructions
- Heat a large non-stick skillet to medium-high then add ground beef. Cook and crumble until browned then drain grease if needed.
- Add zucchini, carrot, bell pepper, and about ¾ of the green onions. Sauté until vegetables start to soften, about 7-10 minutes.

- Serve over rice and garnish with remaining green onions and drizzle with sriracha.
Notes
- Gochujang can be found in the Asian section of most grocery stores. Don’t leave it out! It’s worth the buy and adds amazing flavor.
- Ground turkey can be used in place of beef.
