Beef- Broccoli Stir Fry

 

I knew when I saw this dish in Cooking Light that I wanted to try it.  First, I had to dig out my wok that I haven't used in quite some time.  The dish was tasty and fast. I'll make this again and try it with chicken and add other vegetables.  It was a nice change.  Go to the link to look at the picture.  (we know my pics aren't too appetizing lol)
