A delicious cooking idea from my friend Jeanne inspired this Sriracha Beef Cabbage Bowl recipe, a dish I’ve enjoyed ever since. Combining the meat from Sriracha Beef Lettuce Wraps with Spicy Mexican Slaw created this flavorful low-carb recipe. The coolness of the cabbage slaw complements the spiciness of the Sriracha beef perfectly; I hope you love it as much as I do!

To make this recipe even quicker, I recommend using a pre-packaged coleslaw mix for the cabbage, making it a simple and convenient option for a tasty meal.
