Meg's Stir Fry

I have hesitated to put this recipe on, although it is really good, because when I come up with my own recipes the measurements are, at best, very vague. Hopefully, I can give you a good enough idea to recreate what I make. :-)

Stew meat (or any meat you can cut into half-inch cubes) I use elk or deer most of the time, sometimes beef. I use about a half-pound of meat, but you can use as much or as little as you like.

1 bag frozen vegetables -- I've used many different varieties, our favorite is GV Deluxe Stir Fry, I've also tried adding my own mix of veggies, but the frozen bags are much easier.

Sauce:
2 c. beef broth
2 T. cornstarch
1/2 c. soy sauce

Cut the meat into half-inch cubes and fry in a large skillet. Add the veggies, heat until warm

Meanwhile, mix broth, soy sauce and cornstarch. When the veggies are heated add the sauce to the meat and veggies. Bring to a boil and let thicken.

Serve over rice.

Sweet & Spicy Glazed Steaks

I officialy have the most awesome husband ever. Last night he surprised me with dinner! He made Sweet & Spicy Glazed Steaks, a recipe he found himself. It was YUMMY, and I asked for the recipe so I could put it on here.

1/2 cup chunky salsa
1/4 cup ketchup
2 Tbsp packed brown sugar
1 Tbsp Dijon-style mustard
Steaks

Combine all ingredients in medium bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup; brush remaining on steaks during last 5 minutes of grilling (or broiling). Serve with reserved sauce. Makes about 3/4 cup.
