Kung Pao Beef


Ingredients:
2 cups yellow squash ( or 1 cup squash, 1 cup zucchini )
1 bag frozen Asian stir fry veggies unseasoned ( broccoli, carrots, edamame.   Meijer has a great variety )
16 oz steak cut into cubes
2 tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp. rice wine vinegar
1 tsp sugar ( or sugar substitute, I use stevia )
2 tbsp. sesame oil
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp dried  chili peppers
2oz unsalted dry roasted peanuts

Directions:
Pan fry your steak. I usually just get it brown on all sides because I'm ultimately going to allow it to simmer in the mixture.  I tend to prefer my beef more well done, so this is going to be a personal preference.
Get your sauce together in a separate pan. All in all liquids and spices. If necessary add in water ( no more than 2 tsp, if you add too much thicken back up with cornstarch ). Start to add in veggies & eventually your steak & peanuts. Turn on low heat, and simmer for 15 minutes with  cover. Serve over rice.

Serves 6. Count for mixture only, not rice.
