SLOW COOKER BROCCOLI BEEF

Super easy Slow Cooker Broccoli Beef! The sauce is AMAZING – so much better tasting and healthier than takeout! 

Say hello to my new favorite thing ever. And no, I’m not talking about my new wooden cooking spoon – it really is new, and I love it – but I am talking about this absolute, hands down, best-ever, all time favorite slow cooker broccoli beef recipe.

This past November we visited my grandparents in California and promised them that they were welcome at our house for dinner the next time they were in town. Well, this past weekend they were in town and they took us up on this offer. The pressure was on. Can’t let the grandparents down ya know?

This broccoli beef did not fail me. My grandparents (and Pops!) went on and on and onnnnnn about how much they loved it. My father – who is notorious for his impeccable portion control – just kept saying that he was stuffed like a Thanksgiving turkey but thought it would be a shame to stop eating something so tasty.

Can I get a woot! woot! for impressing the husband, father, grandmum and grandpop in one fell swoop?

So easy, incredibly tasty, healthy, and company-worthy… just do yourself a big fat favor and skip the take-out next time you’re craving this Asian classic.

Slow cooker broccoli beef for the win!
