Korean BBQ Pepper Nachos are an easy, flavorful and healthy appetizer perfect for the big game or any time.

After the start of the new year both Mr. Flavor Mosaic and I have been trying to eat healthier without giving up our favorite foods. Does this sound familiar? It is a constant struggle. We both grew up on meat and potatoes, Tex-Mex, and Texas barbecue with few vegetables, and we knew we needed to eat a more balanced diet. Beef has always been a major part of our meals, and we wanted to keep it as a part of our diet.

These Korean BBQ Pepper Nachos give us both tons of flavor and protein because they include strips of boneless Top Sirloin Steak.  I like it because the sirloin steak is lean, economical, and has incredible flavor when marinated and stir fried. With all the flavor no one will even guess that it fits into a healthy eating plan.

Marinating the thinly sliced sirloin steak for just 10 minutes in the Korean BBQ marinade adds incredible flavor to the natural flavor of the beef. The amazing thing is that it is so easy.

By serving the Korean BBQ with healthy fresh vegetables, such as these sliced green bell peppers and mini yellow, orange and red sweet peppers, and whole grains, you create a colorful balanced meal with protein vitamins and minerals.

These Korean BBQ Pepper Nachos make a stunning presentation as well when topped with grated carrots, red cabbage, and chopped green onions and served as an appetizer; or serve these with healthy whole grains like brown rice or quinoa for a balanced meal.

For an easy tool to find lean cuts of beef, visit the Interactive Butcher Counter and search for cuts that have the green LEAN symbol.
