Low Calorie/Low Carb/High Fibre/Low Sodim/Low Cholesterol/Low Sat Fat/High Potassium/Heart Healthy with a hint of orange this is fast and easy.  I put everything into a slow cooker, but it is actually a stir fry dish.

Stir fry until brown (or put in slow cooker):

• 1/2 kg beef sirloin, sliced
• 1 oinion chopped
• 1 clove garlic, chopped

Mix together the following then add to beef:

• zest of 1 orange (optional but will make a zester taste)
• 3/4 cup orange juice
• 2 Tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 Tablespoon cooking wine
• 1/2 tsp sugar (optional)
• 2 Tablespoons minced fresh ginger

Simmer, then add:

• 1 bunch broccoli, cut into small florets
• 1/3 cup water
• 1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced
• 1/2 cup sliced scallion greens

Cover and steam, stirring occasionally until the water has evaporated and broccoli is tender.

Can be served over rice.  This is a great way to get a few extra vegetables into a meal, but if you don’t have them, you can also make this receipe without the vegetables or through in whatever you have on hand i.e. cabbage, broccoli slaw, celery, etc.)
