healthy beef and broccoli Beef & Broccoli Stir Fry

This is an easy and simple recipe and one of my favorite go-to recipes on busy nights. It can be made quickly, especially if you have a wok, and reminds me of the beef and broccoli I always used to order at chinese restaurants (before I found out about all the stuff besides beef and broccoli that they put in it!). A kid-favorite at our house!

    This was REALLY good! I didn’t use oyster sauce as the only brand I found had MSG in it. It’s in the rotation now:)

    I can’t remember if I read it on your site or not (I tried searching for it but not for very long…) but I have read that soy is horrible for your hormones. Is this true? Does it apply to soy sauce? Thoughts?

    P.S. -I love your site and all the hard work you put into researching topics to share with us! You are changing lives! :) Thank you!!

    If it is traditionally fermented soy sauce, it is much better and shouldn’t hurt your hormones. Make sure it says “traditionally fermented” or “naturally fermented” and doesn’t contain HFCS
