“Baby’s Crying” Beef Stir Fry

This is a recipe created while visiting my best friend this past weekend.  She has a one month old baby at home and her usually super-dad husband was down for the count with a pretty bad flu.  With him quarentined to the guest room away from the baby she needed some help taking care of the baby and the sick “baby” — her husband.  For dinner options, I took her to a great supermarket that has a lot of great ingredients already prepped for you.  It definately costs a little more but is worth the time saver when you just don’t have time to chop things yourself.  We made a quick stir fry using already prepared ingredients.  Try and get long grain brown rice as it is the most nutritious.
