While the ground beef is cooking, get a pot of water started for your pasta noodles. Be sure to salt the water well so that your noodles soak up that flavor.

Combine the remaining ingredients -- the soy sauce, beef broth brown sugar, red pepper flakes, pepper, and hoisin sauce in a small dish and pour into ground beef mixture.

• 1/2 CUPlow sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 CUPbeef broth
• 1/4 CUPbrown sugar
• 6 TBSPhoisin sauce
