PALEO BEEF STIR FRY WITH VEGGIES {WHOLE30, KETO}
This quick and tasty paleo beef stir fry is loaded with flavor and veggies and uses clean simple ingredients. It's so much healthier than takeout but just as fast! Family approved and great for weeknight dinners. I love serving it over fried cauliflower rice to keep it paleo, Whole30 compliant and low carb too.

MOM'S PALEO STIR-FRY
My brother follows the Paleo lifestyle, and my mom made up this dish when he and I were both over for a visit one night. It was so good! Also, if desired, it is easily adaptable, switching out veggies or meats for whatever suits your preference. To keep it truly Paleo, do not substitute tofu for your protein.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your stir-fry. Look for vegetables that are crisp and brightly colored, and meat that is fresh and well-marbled.
- Cut your vegetables and meat into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. The ideal size for most vegetables is about 1-inch pieces. For meat, aim for pieces that are about 1/2-inch thick.
- Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help prevent the food from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet with a lid.
- Use a high heat: Stir-fries are cooked over high heat, so make sure your burner is turned up to high. This will help the food cook quickly and evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the food will steam instead of fry. Cook the food in batches if necessary.
- Stir the food constantly: Stirring the food constantly will help prevent it from burning. It will also help the food cook evenly.
- Add the sauce at the end: The sauce is the finishing touch to a stir-fry. Add it at the end of the cooking process, once the food is cooked through.
Conclusion:
Stir-fries are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy a variety of vegetables and protein. They are also quick and easy to make, making them a great option for busy weeknights. With a little practice, you can learn to make stir-fries that are as good as, or even better than, your favorite takeout. So next time you're looking for a quick and healthy meal, give stir-fry a try.
