Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Beef & Broccoli
1 Picture

Time on High: not recommended Time on Low: 6 hours One of my favorite Chinese meals is beef and broccoli. I've loved it since I was a kid and I knew that there had to be a way that I could make this a bit healthier if I made it at home. The results were amazing! You don't have to marinate but if you can, do so for up to 12 hours with this recipe! The flank steak was really tender after marinating and I highly recommend it. No more Chinese takeout at home!
