Ingredients
Instructions
-
Brown the meat in a large skillet over medium heat until fully cooked.
-
Turn up the heat to medium high and add the chopped onions and sesame oil, and lightly brown the onions.
-
In a small bowl, mix the garlic, ginger, and soy sauce and add to the skillet, then immediately add the cabbage and stir well (cabbage will threaten to spill out of the pan but it will soon shrink and fit). Cook for several more minutes, until the cabbage is tender and wilted, stirring often.
-
Turn off the heat, and add the green onions and salt and black pepper to taste. Stir one last time, sprinkle with the red pepper flakes (if using), tweak seasonings to own it until it wows you then serve.
Note
MAKE A FAMILY MEAL: For the weight loss plan enjoy in a bowl with an optional added side salad if you desire an S. To make this an E meal, enjoy it over rice or quinoa. Make sure to use extra-lean meat (at least 96% lean) or brown the meat and then rinse well under hot water to remove fat before returning to the skillet. Use no more than 1 tablespoon of oil. Owing to a lack of juiciness (fat) in the meat, add 2 tablespoons of fat-free chicken broth or water. To make this a Fuel Pull, follow same directions for E, but enjoy over sautéed riced cauliflower. Children and others in Crossover stage can have whole grain rice, whole milk or bread with the S version.
To Make it an E:
Use extra lean meat instead (ground turkey, or skinless chicken breast - ground, chopped, or shredded) and because of the lack of juiciness (fat) from the meat, add 1/4 cup of fat-free chicken stock (or water). You may want to also add a bit more of the aminos (or soy sauce) and ginger, and feel free to add extra carrots too, you can add one cup of shredded carrots if you would like or to your own personal taste! Serve over a full E Serving of brown rice or quinoa.
To Make it a FP:
Use extra lean meat instead (ground turkey, or skinless chicken breast - ground, chopped, or shredded) and because of the lack of juiciness (fat) from the meat, add 1/4 cup of fat-free chicken stock (or water). You may want to also add a bit more of the aminos (or soy sauce) and ginger. You could serve the FP version over Cauli Rice or konjac noodles.
To Make it an S Helper: Prepare recipe as written and serve over a 1/3 cup of cooked quinoa, OR a 1/4 cup of cooked brown rice OR 1 slice of sprouted bread.
