Pepper Steak over Farro
Wednesday, November 13, 2013From our skinny table to yours...
Ready for a super quick and easy 7 ingredient weeknight meal the whole family will love? Anything with peppers, onions and steak makes for a very happy hubs over here! We try and limit our red meat intake, however there is nothing wrong with eating organic, grass fed lean steak every now and then ;)
Ok, ready for dinner
in under 30? Start simply by browning your sliced peppers,
onions and garlic in olive oil. Then toss in your steak strips and brown for
just under a minute. Add in 2 cups of organic chicken/beef stock and let simmer
on low to combine flavors! See how easy!
We served our pepper
steak over farro, our new favorite grain! If you haven't tried this yet, it
tastes very similar to brown rice, just a little nuttier and more plump!
Here's the good news, farro is a protein and fiber packed grain which is
believed to stimulate your immune system, lower cholesterol and maintain blood
sugar! Why wouldn't you eat this?
YUM. Hope you enjoy
this quick and easy make your own takeout weeknight meal!
