The Sides:
- While the beef is marinading, cut up a carrot and zucchini, tossed it with some olive oil and salt before roasting it in the oven for 20 minutes at 400F.
- Slice up an onion and some mushrooms and set it aside.
The Beef Bowls:
- Start with a drizzle of oil in a hot skillet and sauté the onions before adding in the garlic. Cook for 2 minutes.
- Add your ground beef to the skillet.
- Let the beef cook on medium-high heat but be sure to break up the beef with a wooden spoon so that as the beef browns, it browns evenly.
- Once your beef is almost finished cooking, add in your mushroom. Add more salt & pepper as needed. Continue to cook until done.
- Serve with your optional sides immediately or pack for later in your meal prep containers.
Notes
- I've included the carrot and zucchini in the calorie count.
