Poor man’s low carb beef and broccoli recipe

WP_000519

Little economical twist of the classic beef and broccoli.  This is a great meal to cook up in about 10-15 minutes and leftovers work great as additional meals.  You can also add some extra veggies if you want but below is the simple bare bones method.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. hamburger
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Splenda
  • 2 cups broccoli

Directions

  1. Brown hamburger at medium-high heat and apply cayenne pepper, this doesn’t mean grey you really want to get some nice dark brown color to the meat.  Do not drain any of the fat…that is the good stuff.
