This Easy Beef and Broccoli with Mushrooms is a (less than) 30 minute dinner the whole family will love!
It’s EASY, inexpensive, tastes awesome, and takes less than 30 minutes to prepare. What’s not to love?!
If, by chance, you’re not a lover of mushrooms, simply omit them.
I’m so guilty of ordering takeout or delivery on a regular basis. There’s no telling how much money I could have saved if I had made everything myself that I was craving instead of ordering it!
For what I paid for this meal, I would have paid for about 2 orders of Chinese takeout. This recipe easily yields 4 very hearty servings… I could have been making this, freezing the beef mixture and throwing a bag of quick-cooking rice in a pot of boiling water for 10 minutes.
??? Live and learn.
Enjoy!

My question is our store is out of sesame oil. What other oil can I use? Can I use canola oil?
Thank you.

Hi Shannon, I personally haven’t tried it, but you should be able to substitute with canola oil. Hope you enjoy it! 🙂
