Notes
Serve this delicious chop suey in bowls, garnished with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of cheese if you like! It pairs nicely with a side of bread or a simple salad for a complete meal. For a healthier version, swap ground beef for ground turkey or chicken. Feel free to add additional vegetables like peas or corn for extra nutrition and color. Adjust the amount of soy sauce according to your taste and dietary needs. For a vegetarian option, replace the ground beef with a mix of beans or lentils. You can also use vegetable broth instead of beef broth for added flavor!
