Ingredients

4 servings

1 lb ground beef (85/15)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
Ingredient note
A serving of up to about half a cup of red bell pepper is low in fructose. This recipe contains only about 1/4 of a red bell pepper per serving, making it likely Low Fructose. If you prefer to always avoid red bell pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp smoked paprika
¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
1 tbsp coconut aminos
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
¼ cup chicken broth
5 oz fresh baby spinach
½ tsp salt, plus more to taste
¼ tsp black pepper

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
2
Add the garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes, if using, and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Watch closely so the garlic does not brown.
