• porciones: 4 servings
• tiempo activo: 5 minutes
• tiempo total: 20 minutes

Ingredientes

3 packs Trader Joe's Knife Cut Noodles (see notes from substitutions)

1 cup Low Fat Cottage Cheese

¼ cup (84g) Gochujang

¼ cup Water

1 pound Ground Beef (96% lean)

3 Sauce Packets from the Noodles

2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup

1 Tablespoon Coconut Aminos or Low Sodium Soy Sauce

1 Tablespoon Rice Vinegar

4 Green Onions (thinly sliced, green and white parts separated)

Instrucciones

Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the noodles.

Blend the cottage cheese, gochujang, and water together until smooth. Set aside.

Mix the sauce packets, maple syrup, coconut aminos, rice vinegar, and white parts of the sliced green onions together. Set aside.

Brown and fully cook the ground beef in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the sauce to the cooked ground beef and stir everything together. Cook for another 2-3 untouched until the sauce thickens and begins to caramelize on the bottom. (Start cooking the noodles after adding the sauce to the cooked beef.)

Cook the noodles for 4 minutes. Reserve about ½ cup of the water and set aside before draining the rest. Add the drained noodles to the pot with the blended gochujang sauce. Toss together, using the reserved pasta water as needed to bring everything together.

Top with the crispy beef, remaining sliced green onion, and toasted sesame seeds.
