Gingery Broccoli and Beef + Easter

My sister and I are doing a 21 Day Paleo Challenge, I've done my best, but I have not eaten 100% Paleo. Here is a recipe I made for this challenge. (Husband tested and approved).

Ingredients:
  •  2 Tbs Coconut Oil
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into very thin strips
  • 2 Tbs Lemon Juice
  • 2 tsp freshly grated ginger
  • 2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup broth (beef or vegetable)
  • 2 cups broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 cups carrots, thinly sliced
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
Instructions:
  1. Heat the 1 Tbs coconut oil and garlic in a large skillet over medium to high heat.
  2. Add the sliced beef and 1/4 tsp sea salt, and brown. Remove beef from pan to a side dish, and get rid of excess juice left in pan.
  3. In a small bowl mix lemon juice, grated ginger, and black pepper with 1/4 cup broth.
  4. Heat pan again over medium heat. Add 1 Tbs coconut oil when pan is hot.
  5. Add broccoli and carrots to pan. Pour liquid ingredients on top and toss to coat.
  6. Cook over medium heat until broccoli is tender.
  7. Return the beef to the pan and add the green onions. Add the extra broth if preferred.
  8. Stir beef in until it's coated with sauce, and let simmer for a few minutes until beef warmed through.
This makes dinner for 2, with some leftovers for lunch the next day!

Easter, what a beautiful day it was!


We spent a lot of time outside, planting our vegetable garden, fixing up stuff around the house! What a fabulous and beautiful weekend!
