Ramen noodles are cheap and easy to store. Now here's the thing with this recipe: YOU DO NOT USE THE SEASONING PACK. And this is enough for 6 people so the carbs won't be bad.
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
- 1 cup matchstick carrots
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2–3 large scallions, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup braggs coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 14.25 oz (about 400 ml) beef stock
- 2 packs ramen noodles, seasoning packets discarded
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- Extra scallions, for garnish
- Brown the ground beef in a skillet and drain excess fat.
- Add beef, carrots, bell pepper, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar and beef stock to the crockpot.
- Stir well and cover.
- Cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2–3 hours.
- Break the ramen noodles into smaller pieces and add during the last 15–20 minutes.
- Stir until the noodles are tender.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and scallions.
