    Korean beef bowls are all the rage in the Paleo scene, and for good reasons too. They have few yet healthy ingredients, they are naturally free from gluten and dairy, and they taste simply amazing with generous amounts of fresh ginger and spicy red pepper paste.

    And let's not forget that they are fork-ready in less than 30 minutes! But the bowl? Well, love it or hate it, the bowl is here to stay, and it is destined for more than just Paleo granola. In this case, we are filling it to the brim (plates work equally well) with our Korean beef stir-fry.

    You are going to love this Asian-inspired recipe, and we are so certain about this that we suggest doubling the amount of beef sirloin on your shopping list. Bump that number up to 4 lbs. of the best meat you can afford, and you will be dining well all week, or at least your freezer will be stocked with leftovers and freezers like that, we think.

    If you are really undecided about the quantity, know that you can make the best beef sirloin with fresh herb marinade with any additional sirloin steaks. It is always a good idea to have a fail-proof recipe for falling back on; this is one of them.

    Cooking at home always beats take-out in terms of quality, so stock up on those kitchen staples and create a dining-out-at-home experience every day of the week.
