Easy Stir Fry
I searched all over for my photo of this meal, but I could not find it! I’m planning to make this again in the next few weeks so I will update this post with a photo then. It really does make for a pretty meal though, you’ll just have to trust me!Alex absolutely loved this meal! It is great for a night when you just need something for dinner quickly. Make sure everything is defrosted before you start and you’ll be ready to go! You can use any type of wok sauce you’d like for this recipe. I used a Ginger sauce when I made this recipe. Since they’re premade it again will make it go quicker. If you want to premake a sauce for this that would also work. You can also pick a gluten free sauce if you want that option.[amd-yrecipe-recipe:217]
Recently I decided to try more dishes outside my comfort zone. This was definitely one of them. Alex loved it though and I think you will too! This is the perfect recipe for the hot summer nights when you don’t really want to turn on your oven. Since you put these on the grill you can easily have a great dinner without heating up your kitchen at all. This is a slightly spicy yet fantastically grilled dish. I’ve used green bell pepper, onion and mushrooms but you can use whatever veggies you prefer on your kebabs.You will need skewers for this recipe. I found a pack of
We had some asparagus leftover in our fridge and I just had to do something exciting with it. Alex has been requesting stir fry for several weeks so I thought I’d use the asparagus to make just that. This was actually a very easy recipe to make. I had dinner ready in under an 45 minutes from start to finish and that included the marinate time for the beef.The beef is best if you marinate it overnight to give it a full flavor. If you don’t have time though, you can just quickly marinate it for 15-30 minutes. I don’t often have steak on hand so I used a chuck roast for this recipe. Just make sure the beef is very thinly sliced especially if you use a roast or some other typically tough cut of meat.This recipe really doesn’t smell the best when you’re making it. Alex wasn’t very excited to have it for dinner since it was pretty stinky, however when he finally did sit down to eat it he said it was actually incredible! The flavors blend nicely together, especially the beef and asparagus. Don’t let the smell fool you, it is way better than is smells![amd-yrecipe-recipe:195]Source: Adapted from
Alex has been bugging me to make fajitas for months now. I just never seemed to have time or all the ingredients into order to make these. I finally just sat down and made them even though I didn’t have all the traditional ingredients called for. Alex absolutely loved them though and couldn’t get enough!I actually used thinly sliced rump roast for this recipe and it turned out fantastic (see Mom, you actually can use roast for this!) I know typically you use some sort of steak but I didn’t have it in my freezer and I didn’t have time to run to the store to get any. The key was to marinate the very thinly sliced beef overnight in the spice mixture in order to give it great flavor.[amd-yrecipe-recipe:188]
