I created this recipe for JSL Foods; however, the opinions are mine alone.
Beef Yakisoba with Sugar Snap Peas is a delicious, family-friendly weeknight dinner that’s ready in under 30. With tender beef, crunchy vegetables, and hearty soba buckwheat noodles, it’s bound to be a new family favorite!
Friends, I have been so crazy, super busy lately—and I’m sure you can relate. Getting kids to school, working, just dealing with life can be tough. Especially now that fall is here and we have to brush the dust off our Halloween decorations. I’ll be doing that once I remember where I strategically placed them in the black hole (aka my garage). So what am I getting at here? Busy, crazy days call for quick, hardly-have-to-think-about-them dinners. Like this Beef Yakisoba with Sugar Snap Peas.
What makes it so easy is it’s a stir-fry, which means it’s quick. AND it’s made with none other than JSL Foods Fortune Soba Buckwheat noodles. Here’s what I love about them: they’re pre-cooked and microwaveable AND GMO and cholesterol free. So not only are they ready lickety-split, but they’re better for you. As a busy working mom who’s always on the lookout for nutritious food for my kids, that’s a win-win. You can purchase JSL Foods products in the refrigerated section at your local Banners, Macey’s, Dick’s, Lin’s, Fresh Market, Harmon’s, Smiths Associated Food Stores, or Target.
Let me show you just how easy this Beef Yakisoba with Sugar Snap Peas is to make. First, chop up your veggies and beef. Put the veggies together in a bowl.
Mix your sauce ingredients together. I just use a mason jar and shake ’em up. Then, remove the noodles from their packages and microwave each noodle package for 1 minute. Set those aside.
Toss the beef with the ginger and garlic.
In your large skillet or wok, stir-fry the beef until it’s browned on all sides.
Remove the beef from the skillet and add a little more oil (if needed). Stir-fry the veggies until they’re crisp-tender.
Then, toss in your noodles and sauce.
Simply stir-fry everything until it’s heated through. Then, give yourself a quick pat on the back that you whipped up a family-friendly, super delicious meal in less than 30. And, of course, delight in the thought that you’ve gained a little “me” time. 🙂
