This Mongolian Beef is an amazing dish. After hours in the slow cooker the flank steak just falls apart and melts in your mouth. It’s so delicious you’ll be going back for seconds, make plenty of rice!!
Freezer to Crockpot Mongolian Beef and Broccoli Recipe
This dish takes little prep to put it together. You want to slice the flank steak about 1/2″ slices across the grain. Then cut the long strips in half, so they are 1 to 2 inch chunks and coat them in the cornstarch before adding to the bag. In a separate bowl whisk all the other ingredients and pour into the bag, seal and freeze.
For all freezer meals make sure to label your freezer bag with the name of the recipe, cooking instructions, and prep date. Freezer meals can be frozen for up to 3 months.
