Mongolian Beef and Veggie Stir-Fry

I find making stir-fry one of the easiest (and tastiest) ways to get a boat load of veggies into dinner. This recipe is super versatile as you can simply swap out the meat and/or veggies for your favorite types and keep that yummy sauce. And it’s on the table in under 15 minutes!

 1. Combine sauce ingredients in a bowl. Set aside. 

2.
Heat 2 teaspoons coconut oil (or canola oil) in a large skillet over
high heat. Add steak and cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer
to a bowl. 

3. In the same skillet, heat the remaining oil and add the onion, carrots and broccoli and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. 

4. Add beef back to the pan along with the sauce and cook for 3 minutes. Finish with cilantro. 

5. Serve stir-fry over brown rice and garnish with chopped peanuts.
