by Sooz Cooks
PREP TIME: 5 mins
TOTAL TIME: 25 mins
SERVES: 4
ABOUT THIS RECIPE:
This recipe supposedly earned its name because it is SO addictive and I agree! I absolutely love this stuff. You can just eat it with a fork or make lettuce wraps out of the mix. Simple and DELICIOUS! I say 4 servings here but really, my husband and I could polish off the batch with no problem!”
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 lb ground beef
- salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 14 ounces coleslaw mix (if you don’t want the carrots use the angel hair cole slaw or just shred up a head of cabbage)
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sriracha sauce (this will be pretty mild so add to taste or you can use pepper flakes to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger paste (you could also use 1/2 teaspoon fresh minced ginger or ground ginger)
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar (any kind really)
- Sriracha sauce (to garnish)
DIRECTIONS:
- Brown ground beef and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove from pan and set aside.
- Heat up sesame oil and sauté garlic, onions, and slaw in sesame oil until cabbage is cooked to desired tenderness.
- Stir in the soy sauce, Sriracha sauce, ginger and vinegar.

- Serve with additional Sriracha sauce on the side for people who want to add spice.
