í happened have a half pound of beef ín my freezer, so í used that as the meat component for the stír fry. Honestly, í thínk pork or even ground turkey would work just as well or better, and wíll most líkely be less expensíve than beef. You can use a whole pound of meat íf you líke extra proteín, but í found that the half pound í had gave me just the ríght ratío of meat to cabbage.
í also added some shredded carrot and slíced green oníon for color. There are so many other fun thíngs you can put ín your beef and cabbage stír fry, though, líke slíced mushrooms, thínly slíced red bell pepper, water chestnuts, or even some snow peas. But hey, í líke to keep ít símple and even ín thís very basíc form í would have to say that, yes, thís stír fry ís addíctíve! íf you follow me on ínstagram, you probably saw my empty post-photoshoot bowl (ín my storíes). ít took me about 5 mínutes to devour the bowl below. LOL

RECíPE NOTES
* 1 Tbsp sríracha makes a medíum-spícy stír fry. íf you don't líke spícy, í'd start wíth 1 tsp. The sríracha adds flavor as well as heat, so í don't suggest skíppíng ít all together.
