Last night I went out and purchased all my groceries that I would need to make supper for the next week and prepared for today's lunches and supper. The first recipe on the list for today was Ginger Beef. Ok, I have to admit I was a bit freaked out over this recipe. I am not one to normally jump out of my comfort zone when it comes to foods however I have been quite proud of myself with the food I have been eating and tonight was no exception. This meal started with some centre cut steak I purchased at Costco. I had to cut this up into strips and sauté it with fresh grated ginger and extra virgin olive oil.
After this was done, I set it aside and added some frozen veggies to the frying pan. This only took about 6 minutes to fully cook and in the mean time, I also boiled the water and cooked the egg white noodles for it.
After the noodles were cooked, I drained them and then added several other ingredients to them, including peanut butter, red pepper flakes, soya sauce and green onions.
Then came the mixing. I have to admit this was a little interesting to do as the peanut butter was sticky as you would expect but after it heated up a bit, it stirred in perfectly.
Once this was all stirred in, I added the veggies and beef to the pasta mixture and Voila! Toute Fini! :)
Curtis and I definitely enjoyed this meal. We figured we would rate it about a 8 out of 10 and would definitely make it again....As well as eat it for lunch tomorrow. Yay leftovers :)
the ginger doesn't freak me out, but PEANUT BUTTER ????
ReplyDeleteI haven't had pb except for toast, sandwiches and with chocolate....interesting.
It looks deliscious!
It definitely takes a little getting used to. It probably wasn't be absolute favorite thing in the world but it was far better then I thought it would be.
