Paleo Beef and Broccoli
I used to find the task of cooking to be incredibly frustrating. Well, maybe not the cooking itself, but trying to decide what to cook had the potential to trigger a mild panic attack. So began my quest to uncover and create healthy recipes that I could throw together on busy weeknights. Now that I’ve compiled a collection of quick and easy Paleo-friendly and gluten-free recipes, I’ve found that the task of cooking has actually become quite enjoyable. Week after week, I tend to call upon a handful of faithful recipes that are grain free, gluten free, healthy, easy, paleo friendly and take less than 30 minutes to prepare. We are all busy and most of us don’t have time to be slaving away in the kitchen for hours.
That’s where this Paleo Beef and Broccoli recipe comes in. It’s one of my favorite go-to recipes due to the fact that it rates high on my this-tastes-amazing-and-it’s-good-for-me-too scale. My Paleo Beef and Broccoli recipe is grain free, gluten free, soy free, dairy free, and a cinch to prepare. The coconut aminos are a great alternative to conventional soy sauce as they provide a similar taste, but without the gluten and grain that so many of us are trying to avoid.
