Ingredients

To make these Korean beef bowls, you need the following ingredients:

⅓ cup coconut aminos
2 ½ tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons sesame oil
3 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 bunch scallions chopped, white and green parts separated
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon chili paste Sriracha
2 tablespoons cooking oil
1 ½ pounds ground beef
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds optional
3 to 4 cups cauliflower rice
1 pound broccoli florets steamed

Instructions

Start by stirring together the coconut aminos, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, white scallion parts, pepper, and chili paste in a small bowl.

In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, heat the cooking oil. Brown the meat for 5 to 8 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Continue cooking until the meat is no longer pink. Add the sauce to the skillet, bringing it to a quick boil, and then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 4 minutes.

Serve the beef warm, sprinkled with green scallion tops and sesame seeds (if using) over the cauliflower rice with steamed broccoli on the side.

The Best Grain-Free Family Meals on the Planet Cookbook

Living a life without grains may seem like an impossible task, but it doesn’t have to be. I would like to tell you a little about Laura Fuentes, author of The Best Grain-Free Family Meals on the Planet and founder of MOMables.com, as well as share with you her recipe for Korean Beef Bowls. You could say that she has mastered the grain-free lifestyle.

The Best Grain Free Family Meals cookbook.

Laura struggled with digestive issues and at the age of 24 had to have emergency gall bladder surgery. After that, she removed all fried foods from her diet, “added lean animal proteins back in, and limited processed ingredients.” Though she felt “fine,” she didn’t feel great.

After suffering from seasonal allergies which became worse during her pregnancies, along with a newborn who would become fussy after nursing, she did some research and discovered that gluten and dairy proteins are passed through breast milk. After removing them from her diet, her baby responded well to the changes and she noticed significant improvement herself.

Fast forward a bit and two of her three children have dietary restrictions, so three out of five family members have to be cautious about what they eat. What’s a family to do? Instead of spending additional time preparing different meals to accommodate different dietary needs, Laura created recipes that the entire family can enjoy together.
