03 - 1 small onion, thinly sliced
04 - 3 cloves garlic, minced

# How-To Steps:

01 - Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add ground meat and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, approximately 5 to 6 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
02 - Add onion, garlic, and ginger to the pan. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant and onion becomes soft.
03 - Stir in the cabbage slaw mix. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until cabbage is wilted but retains slight crunch.
04 - In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and sriracha if using. Pour sauce into the pan and toss to combine, cooking for 1 to 2 additional minutes.
05 - Remove from heat. Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and additional toppings as desired. Serve immediately or divide into meal prep containers for later use.
