- 1½ pounds beef roast or steak cut into strips steak will be more tender
- 1 to 2 cups fresh mushrooms sliced
- 1 med onion sliced or cut into rings
- ½ to ¾ cup beef broth depending on how much sauce you want
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 to 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ¼ cup cold water
Combine beef, mushrooms, onion, broth and sauces in crock pot
Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours
About 45 minutes before serving dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water
Add water/cornstarch mixture and broccoli to crock pot
Cover and cook for the remaining 45 minutes
Freezer Meal Directions:
Place everything except the cornstarch and broccoli in a large zip lock freezer bag
Place the broccoli in a separate, smaller bag and place it inside the larger bag
You CAN put the cornstarch in its own freezer bag and put it in the larger bag, it won't hurt it. You can also leave it on the shelf and not. Your choice
Close, label and freezer bag for up to 6 weeks
Follow directions above when ready to cook...you only need to defrost the meat enough to get it out of the bag, it does not have to be completely thawed
