### **Instructions**  


1. **Cook the Ground Beef:**  

   Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up into small pieces, until browned and fully cooked (5-7 minutes). Drain excess fat and set aside.

   In the same skillet, heat sesame oil. Add the frozen stir fry vegetables and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender-crisp.  


3. **Make the Sauce:**  

   In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, and sriracha.  


4. **Combine Everything:**  

   Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet. Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables, stirring to coat. If a thicker sauce is desired, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry, then stir it into the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens.  


5. **Serve:**  

   Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve over steamed rice, cauliflower rice, or noodles.
