Can you believe it’s already almost the end of March? How did that happen? I’m excited to share this new recipe with you all today. I haven’t messed around with Asian recipes other than a super basic stir-fry that I make sometimes, so I wanted to work on something a little more involved (aka more than just adding teriyaki sauce).

This recipe includes some of our favorite veggies: onion, bell pepper, and broccoli. It even has barley, which I firmly believe everyone should try! Flank steak is the ideal meat for this recipe, but we used a different beef cut this time and it was a little tough. I used Quaker Oats quick-cook barley, which only took 10-12 minutes to cook (amazing), but you can use any other kind as long as you follow the cooking instructions.

It’s a different take on steak teriyaki and we love it! Make sure to let us know your thoughts.
