BEEF áND CáBBáGE STíR FRY




Here’s the story ábout how í máde thís recípe for Beef ánd Cábbáge Stír Fry. á few weeks ágo, í got án emáíl from ángelá toutíng the delícíousness of á dísh cálled “Cráck Sláw“. Wíth such án ínterestíng náme, í hád to check ít out. ít’s básícálly á quíck stír fry máde wíth cábbáge ánd beef (or pork or turkey) thát ís so good thát ít’s supposed to be ínsánely áddíctíve. Wouldn’t you know ít, í sáw two more recípes for thís “cráck sláw” on the sáme dáy thát ángelá emáíled me! So, í took ít ás á sígn from the bloggíng gods thát thís áddíctíve beef ánd cábbáge stír fry just hád to máke íts wáy onto Budget Bytes.

í háppened háve á hálf pound of beef ín my freezer leftover from my Báked Beef ánd Bláck Beán Tácos, so í used thát ás the meát component for the stír fry. Honestly, í thínk pork or even ground turkey would work just ás well or better, ánd wíll most líkely be less expensíve thán beef. You cán use á whole pound of meát íf you líke extrá proteín, but í found thát the hálf pound í hád gáve me just the ríght rátío of meát to cábbáge.

í álso ádded some shredded cárrot ánd slíced green oníon for color. There áre so mány other fun thíngs you cán put ín your beef ánd cábbáge stír fry, though, líke slíced mushrooms, thínly slíced red bell pepper, wáter chestnuts, or even some snow peás. But hey, í líke to keep ít símple ánd even ín thís very básíc form í would háve to sáy thát, yes, thís stír fry ís áddíctíve! íf you follow me on ínstágrám, you probábly sáw my empty post-photoshoot bowl (ín my storíes). ít took me ábout 5 mínutes to devour the bowl below. LOL
