King of the beef stir fry's? Quick and Easy Beef Chow Mein
I love this Beef chow mein for a quick dinner that everyone enjoys. It's not spicy, just full of umami flavour. Tender steak strips with chow mein noodles and vegetables in a tasty stir-fry sauce.
You can use whatever vegetables you have to hand, and even use them to replace the meat if you're looking for a meat-free easy dinner.
