Korean Ground Beef

Serving Size: 4

Ingredients:
- 1 pack of Simple Truth Natural ground beef (91% lean)
- 1 cup of Uncle Ben's brown rice (I use the kind that comes in the box)
- 1 tablespoon Organic Sesame Oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
- 1/2 cup green onions
- 4 garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons of crushed red pepper (I love spicy food, so if you're not into it please scale this down at your discretion)
- 1 teaspoon of salt and ground black pepper each
- 1/4 cup lite soy sauce
- 8 teaspoons of brown sugar

Prep:
Dice up the green onions, garlic, and ginger- place them in a bowl with the necessary seasonings as mentioned above (minus the soy sauce)
Place rice on a burner, following the directions as listed on the box.

How-To:
In a large saucepan, place the sesame oil and allow it to get hot.  Place in the ground beef, and using a spatula break it up across the pan.  Place in the 1/4 cup of soy sauce, followed by the bowl of ingredients you previously prepared.  Continue to mix and chop away at the ground beef until it's mixed up well, and in the size pieces you desire.  Once the meat is cooked, (on medium heat, usually after about 10 minutes) turn the burner off and as the pan cools the sauce will thicken up.  Once the rice is complete, measure out 1 cup of rice, and an equal portion of the ground beef (I topped mine with more green onions), and then ENJOY!

This meal is very easy, and can be prepared and cooked in just under 30 minutes!
