This delicious recipe is high in protein and takes just 15 minutes to make
The humble stir-fry truly is one of the truly great quick and healthy meals. It often only takes one pan to make, you can pile in a whole load of veg to help you on your way to your five-a-day, and you can cook, eat and wash-up in half an hour flat should you so desire. Just make sure you chew each mouthful properly.
Having a couple of go-to stir-fry recipes is, therefore, a wise move for anyone who regularly needs to make dinner quickly but doesn’t want to resort to ready meals or takeaways, and this beef stir-fry recipe will make a superb addition to your repertoire. It’s packed full of vegetables and high in protein, and if you double up on the ingredients it will be just as tasty for lunch the next day as well.
