Ingredients

1 lb grass-fed ground beef
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cups zucchini cubed
1 cup broccoli florets
3/4 cup red bell pepper chopped
1/2 cup red onion chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos
salt and pepper to taste
fresh parsley

Instructions

Heat oil in large skillet. Add ground beef and cook for 8-10 minutes then add the onion and garlic. Continue to cook the beef until no longer pink.
While the beef is cooking you can chop the veggies. This will save you time!
Add veggies; zucchini, broccoli, bell pepper and stir well. Season with salt, pepper and add in soy and tomato paste, still to combine. Simmer covered for another 6-8 minutes until the veggies have softened and sauce has thickened.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.

Notes

*option to add 1 tbsp of tomato paste to add color, flavor and help thicken the sauce!

Storage

Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Reheating

Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or microwave until warmed through. If needed, add a small splash of water or broth to refresh the vegetables.

Freezer Friendly?

Yes! while the vegetables soften slightly after freezing, the recipe still works well for freezer meals. Store in freezer-safe containers for up to 2 months and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
