Veggie & Beef Stir Fry


     This recipe is simple, but satisfying.  It is also pretty healthy!  It was quick and easy to prepare and I can guarantee you it will be back on the menu again soon!  I know that because my husband even took the leftovers to work!  You have to love that sort of meal!  Plus, I got to use one of my favorite kitchen appliances, my electric wok.  Seriously, I got it at a garage sales quite a few years ago, but I love that thing!  If you don't have one, put it on your Christmas list - you won't regret it!

¼ - ½ lb.stir fry beef
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 zucchini, coarsely chopped
3 cups broccoli, coarsely chopped
1 yellow squash, coarsely chopped
1 tbsp. teriyaki sauce
1 cup brown rice

     Coarsely chop the zucchini, broccoli, and squash.  Boil water for the rice.  Cook rice according to the package.  Meanwhile, heat the oil in an electric wok (or large skillet if you don't have a wok).  Add the beef, stir frying until no longer pink, about 2 minutes.  Add in the vegetables and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.  Add teriyaki sauce (more to taste if you would like) to the stir fry.  Serve the beef and vegetables over the brown rice.  Makes 4 servings.
