Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce, or gluten-free tamari
- 1 tbsp honey
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 lb ground beef, 93% lean

Preparation:
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey,
garlic, ginger, and cornstarch. Set aside.
Add the sesame oil to a large deep skillet over medium-high

Pour in the reserved sauce, stir to combine, and cook for 1
minute. Add the broccoli and cook for 1 more minute.

layering rice first, if using.
Top each with sesame seeds and scallions.
Blessed be... and happy cooking!
