"You can swap out your favorite vegetables (or omit ones you don't like -- my kids are hit or miss with mushrooms). You can adjust the spiciness by adding less or more of the red pepper flakes. If you're going low carb, try this over cauliflower rice! Otherwise, it's really good over plain white rice."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.

Step 3

Push the cooked ground beef to one side of the skillet. Add olive oil to the other side.

Step 4

Add the sliced zucchinis, bell pepper, carrots, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 5

Push the vegetables to the side with the ground beef. Add minced garlic to the cleared side of the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Mix the ground beef and sautéed vegetables together in the skillet.

Step 7

Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil (if using) over the mixture. Add red pepper flakes for a touch of spice.

Step 8

Season with salt and black pepper according to your taste.

Step 9

Continue to stir-fry the mixture for another 3-4 minutes until the flavors meld together and the vegetables are tender yet slightly crisp.

Step 10

Remove from heat.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro.

We enjoyed this skillet meal and even better since I had all the ingredients at home, except for the sesame oil, which I skipped. Very good end of the week meal to use up the veggies left over. Thanks for sharing!
