Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 Tbsp avocado oil and heat until shimmering.
- Add the diced onion to the skillet and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp sea salt. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and begins to brown (near-caramelized), about 8–10 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped mushrooms and minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally and scraping up any browned bits, until the mushrooms soften and turn brown, about 5 minutes.
- Push the cooked vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the 1 lb ground beef to the empty side and let it brown undisturbed for 2–3 minutes. Use a spatula to break the beef into smaller pieces, then continue cooking and stirring until the beef is cooked through with no pink remaining, about 4–6 more minutes.
- Stir the vegetables and beef together. Add 2 tsp dried oregano and, if using, 2 Tbsp coconut aminos or soy sauce. Add the 5 ounces (about 2 big handfuls) baby spinach and stir to combine.
- Cover the skillet and cook until the spinach is wilted, about 2–3 minutes. Uncover and stir.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed — add more sea salt or a splash of coconut aminos/soy sauce to taste. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
Notes
Notes
If desired, add 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger (peeled and grated) if you enjoy ginger!
*If adding soy sauce, wait until the end of cooking to add any salt, as soy sauce often has enough sodium without the need for extra salt.
