BEEF BROCCOLI STIR-FRY

Beef Broccoli Stir-Fry image

My family often requests this tasty beef and broccoli stir fry. It's great because it combines tender beef and nutritious vegetables in one dish. We enjoy this broccoli beef recipe year-round but especially in summer, when I grow my own broccoli and onions. Plus, it doesn't heat up the kitchen. -Ruth Stahl, Shepherd, Montana
