This is our second go at beef and broccoli (with peppers, sugar snap peas, and carrots).

For the first try see: https://blog.gahooa.com/2018/03/12/beef-and-broccoli-recipe/

• Beef was cut a bit smaller.
• Soaked 4 cups water + 1/4 cup baking soda + 1 tbsp salt for 13 minutes.
• Veggies were boiled slightly less – they were not quite done when we drained them.  This way when mixed and heated again with the meat and sauce they ended up about perfect.

Also first try at fried rice.  I thought for sure I ruined it but it turned out okay.  Looking forward to doing this again.
