Creating Healthy Crock Pot Korean Beef is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Beef: Slice the lean beef into thin strips against the grain for maximum tenderness.
2. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey or maple syrup, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, and beef broth. Whisk until well blended.
3. Layer in the Crock Pot: Place the sliced beef in the crock pot. Pour the sauce over the beef, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
4. Add the Vegetables: Layer the broccoli, bell peppers, and carrots on top of the beef and sauce.
5. Cook: Cover the crock pot and set it to cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours.

7. Garnish: Once cooked, serve the beef hot, garnished with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
