Ingredients

• 1/2 white onion (chopped)

• 1/4 of a head of cabbage (chopped)

• 4 large carrots (sliced)

• 3 cloves of garlic (minced)

• 1 tsp ground ginger

• 1/4 cup coconut aminos / tamari

• 2 tsp sesame oil

• 1 pound organic grass fed ground beef

• 1 tsp sesame seeds

• 1 tbsp kimchi

• 1egg

• Salt and pepper

• Green onion (optional)

• 1 tsp chili paste (optional for spice)

• 1 package of rice noodles (optional)

Benefits of Organic, Grass-Fed Ground Beef

Unlike the grain-fed cows that are pumped full of hormones and antibiotics, grass-fed cows are raised on a healthier, low-calorie diet. Reach for the grass fed label and ensure that the beef is entirely free of all added hormones and antibiotics.

Grass-fed beef is also leaner than your typical grain-fed beef, with a higher proportion of omega-3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which have been known to help with heart health and preventing diabetes. 

And it shouldn’t go without mentioning that cattle raised on pasture are often associated with more sustainable and ethical farming practices, relying far less the industrial feedlots that can impact our environment.

Benefits of Carrots 

I’m not breaking new ground when I say carrots are good for you, but, well … they are.

Renowned for their vision-boosting properties, carrots contain beta-carotene, which are converted by your body into Vitamin A and can help reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration by up to 25 percent.

Carrots are also a great source for dietary fiber, aiding in a healthy digestive system and promoting gut health by nourishing the beneficial bacteria in your microbiome.

Benefits of Coconut Aminos / Tamari Instead of Soy Sauce

It’s difficult to imagine egg rolls without soy sauce, but for those who have gluten sensitivities, traditional options can turn a good meal sour. Two great alternatives come in the form of coconut aminos and tamari, both of which can serve as gluten-free substitutes while also containing lower levels of sodium.

While coconut aminos offer a more subtle sweetness than the robust depth of tamari, both are worth giving a shot in this recipe!

Instructions

1. Cut up onion, cabbage, carrots, and garlic.

2. In a small bowl, mix together sauce: ginger, coconut aminos or tamari, and sesame oil. Stir to combine.

3. In a large saucepan, cook beef until browned. Add in garlic and sauté until translucent. Add onion, carrots, cabbage, and sauté until tender. Mix in sauce until coated. Can add a splash of water if too dry.

4. Cook rice noodles (if adding) according to instructions on package.

5. Push all ingredients to one side of pan and fry a single egg. Stir in.

6. Place in bowl and top with sesame seeds, kimchi, and green onion. Chill paste is optional to add a spice.
