I can't even tell you how many times I have made this. My whole family loves it. It comes together super fast and it tastes great leftover. This has really become a go-to recipe. After the first bite, I knew it would become a regular menu item.
I adapted it from this recipe, but since we don't really eat much steak, I went with hamburger and I also doubled most of the sauce recipe.
Seriously, the flavor of this dish is outstanding and it even tastes great leftover. Have dinner on the table in no time with this simple and delicious recipe.

(Printable Recipe)
8 oz. spaghetti noodles
3 c. fresh broccoli florets
1 Lb. lean ground beef
1 Tbl. dried onion flakes
2 garlic cloves, minced
1- 1 1/2 c. shredded carrots (I buy the pre-shredded/matchstix)
For the sauce:
1/2 c. light brown sugar
1/2 c. reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 c. hoisin sauce
2 tsp. sesame oil
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
In a large pot of boiling water, boil the spaghetti noodles according to package directions. About 5 minutes before the noodles are done, add the broccoli florets to the boiling water. Drain when done. Meanwhile, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When meat is just about browned all the way through, add in the dried onion flakes, minced garlic and shredded carrots and cook until meat is cooked through and carrots are tender, stirring frequently. Add in the cooked spaghetti noodles and broccoli and then pour in the sauce. Toss to coat everything in sauce and cook for 1-2 minutes until sauce is heated through. Serve.
For the Sauce:
Whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, ground ginger and red pepper flakes.
