Asian Crack Slaw
When I found this recipe I knew it went right along with the diet Hubby and I are following! It was Friday and on Friday we are allowed beef and we are always allowed cabbage and in this case it was in the form of Cole Slaw Mix! All the spices we want and the brown sugar was just something I added and it will be OK since we are doing so good on this diet! Gotta have a little spice in life!
OMGoodness this stuff is delicious and I see why it's called "crack" because it's addicting! Hubby and I ate the entire skillet but then again we are starving or just hungry!
Trust me that this isn't just food for watching your weight but food for anytime that you want to impress! It is done in minutes and the taste is out of this world good! The sauce is amazing and the crunch of the Cole Slaw Mix mixed with the amazing sauce and tasty ground beef made for a perfect meal! Definitely will be making this again and again!
