Korean Beef & Zucchini Noodles

by

This Keto Korean Beef & Zucchini Noodles is very delicious, tasty, & flavorful. It is very easy to make this Korean beef and a good way to utilize zucchini deliciously. This recipe may not be a fully authentic Korean recipe but there are some traces of it. To make this dish very quickly I utilize minced beef instead of beef slices & I also utilize sugar-free Korean BBQ sauce to make this dish keto-friendly. This dish only requires a few simple keto-friendly alternatives like tamari, swerve brown, allulose, and coconut oil that are easily present in our homes or the grocery stores. This keto Korean Beef & Zucchini Noodles only contain 1.7g of fiber, & 5g of net carbs/serving.
