Notes

  • Swap ground meat for tofu or plant-based crumbles to create a vegetarian version that maintains the same delicious flavor profile and protein content.
  • Reduce sodium by using low-sodium soy sauce and controlling added salt, making this recipe more heart-friendly and suitable for those watching their salt intake.
  • Boost nutrition by adding extra vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, or shredded carrots to increase fiber and micronutrient content without compromising the dish’s core taste.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days, allowing flavors to meld and intensify, creating an even more delectable meal when reheated gently in a skillet.
