Introducing your new favorite weeknight dinner. This Asian Beyond Beef Bowl is my super easy take on a Korean BBQ bowl that comes together in under 20 minutes. While its’ fantastic on its’ own, it’s also super easy to doctor up with fun toppings like kimchi or shredded veggies. I personally kept it on the more mild side for the kiddos, but the spicy factor can easily be ramped up for those who like it hot with the addition of a little more chili garlic sauce or some Sriracha on top.
Beyond Ground Beef keeps this recipe vegan, but even if you aren’t following a plant based diet, you could absolutely make this with some grass fed ground beef. Just use the same amount as you would with the Beyond (1lb).
Top with finely sliced green onions and sesame seeds, or get creative with your favorite Asian toppings.
