🥢 Healthy Chinese Ground Beef & Cabbage Stir Fry Stack

Instructions:

  1. Cook the beef: In a large skillet or wok, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned. Drain excess fat if needed.
  2. Add aromatics: Stir in garlic and ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Veggies: Toss in cabbage and carrots. Stir-fry for 5–7 minutes until tender-crisp.
  4. Sauce it up: Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin (if using), sesame oil, and chili flakes. Stir well. If you want a thicker sauce, mix in the cornstarch slurry and simmer for 2 minutes.
  5. Finish: Stir in green onions, adjust seasoning, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Stack Serving Idea:

  • Serve the stir fry in layers over steamed rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice.
  • For a fun stack presentation: layer rice on the bottom, then a generous portion of the beef & cabbage stir fry, and top with extra green onions + sesame seeds.

👉 It’s high in protein, low in carbs if served with cauliflower rice, and quick enough for busy weeknights.

Would you like me to also give you a meal-prep friendly version of this (so you can stack it into containers for the week)?
