                       Beef Broccoli Lo Mein Salad

Recipe By     :Lori Scott

  1              pound  sirloin steak -- thinly sliced
  1              clove  garlic -- minced
     3/4          inch  ginger root -- minced
  2               cups  broccoli -- cut up
  1                cup  carrot -- sliced
  1 1/2           cups  cabbage -- diced
  1              pound  whole wheat spaghetti -- cooked al dente
                        For dressing combine:
  1         tablespoon  sesame oil
  2        tablespoons  low sodium soy sauce -- (or Bragg's Liquid aminos)
  1         tablespoon  rice wine vinegar
     1/2           cup  water
                        honey to taste -- (I use 1 1/2 tablespoons)

I do all the cooking for this in the morning so that it has time for the flavors to meld.

In hot skillet or wok, stir fry carrots and broccoli in a small amount of olive oil (1-2 teaspoons), if needed add a bit of water (a tablespoon or two), until broccoli is bright green, but still crisp.  Add cabbage for last minute.  Remove all veggies from pan, and place pan back on heat.  Add another teaspoon of olive oil and stir fry beef, garlic, and ginger until meat is cooked all the way through.

Toss pasta, veggies and meat together with dressing , refrigerate for several hours.  Serve with crusty bread or egg rolls.

Variations:  You could substitute chicken or tofu for the beef.
