I got to see Ann, Tony, Ryland, and Colsen today. It’s been less than a year since I’ve seen them and it’s been a long time coming. I loved seeing Ryland so lovingly attentive to Colsen. He’s such a great big brother!
Ann made some delicious chorizo breakfast tacos for brunch and I got to catch up with her. Tony woke up later from being drunk the night before and it was nice getting to catch up with him as well. I found out I liked Mexican Hot Chocolate Ice Cream. The punch of cinnamon really reminds me of winter time.
After a while, I left and headed to H-Mart for some goodies. Then it was a nap and Marvel movies until I started on my meal prep.
I have no clue what to call it so I went with Korean Beef & Tofu Zucchini Noodles. You can pretty much add whatever you’d like as long as you keep the marinade the same – give or take the bone broth depending on the consistency you want. I’m super excited for lunch tomorrow!
- 1/3 c brown sugar, packed
- 1/3 c reduced sodium soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp ginger, freshly grated
- 1 Tbsp sesame chili oil, regular sesame oil is fine
- 1 tsp Sriracha, or more to taste
- a dash bone broth
- 4 oz rib eye steak, sliced into thin strips
- 1 pack medium firm tofu
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small yellow onion, sliced
- 1 pack button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 1/2 lbs zucchini (4 medium-sized), spiralized
- 1 can water chestnuts, optional
-
Mix marinade ingredients together and add in rib eye steak and tofu. Let sit for at least 5 minutes.
-
Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium high heat. Add in tofu slices and cook both sides until a hint of brown, about 3-5 minutes. Take out and set aside.
-
Heat up garlic and add in beef. Cook until slightly finished, about 1-2 minutes. Take out and set aside.
-
Add in onion and mushrooms and a dash of marinade. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
-
Stir in everything until well combined. Allow it to simmer and heat through, about 2-3 minutes.
- You can add or omit any vegetables or meat.
- You can omit the bone broth. I just wanted it a little watery.
- Add in a bit of slurry (cornstarch and water mixture) for a thicker consistency.
