Yields: 4 servings
Get ready to slurp up a delicious and easy Ground Beef Lo Mein that’ll become a staple in your kitchen!
This budget-friendly recipe is a game-changer for a quick weeknight dinner, and the best part? You can make the sauce in advance and refrigerate it for later!
First, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook your spaghetti until it’s tender yet firm to the bite – about 12 minutes. While that’s cooking, cook your ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until it’s browned and crumbly, but still a little chunky. Remove it from the skillet and set it aside for now.
In the same skillet, heat some olive oil over medium-high heat and add sliced red bell pepper, onion, snow peas, celery, ginger, garlic, and a pinch of red pepper flakes (if you like a little heat!). Stir-fry until the veggies are tender, about 5 minutes.
Now it’s time to add the cooked ground beef back into the skillet and mix it well with the veggies. Then, drain your cooked spaghetti and add it to the skillet, tossing everything together until the sauce has slightly thickened – about 3 minutes.
Finally, serve it up and garnish with some thinly sliced green onions. You can even customize the veggies to your liking, so feel free to get creative!
And that’s it! A delicious, easy, and budget-friendly Ground Beef Lo Mein that’s perfect for a quick weeknight dinner. Enjoy!
