So I fell off the map...

Sorry about that! Life has been...special.

Anyways, I made it through big cooking for Thanksgiving (having roasted a duck for the first time), and now I am moving back into the "Just the Two of Us" cooking vibe. Last's night's meal for the win? Beef and Veggie Garlic Sesame Stir fry. I didn't think to take a picture at the time, but I promise I will when I make this again.

1/2 lb flank steak, sliced thin
3 tbs cooking oil (I used two of vegetable and one of garlic infused)
1 bag stir-fry veggies of your choice
2 tbs hoisin sauce
2 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs sesame oil
1 tbs minced garlic
1 tsp sesame seeds
1/2 tsp ground ginger

Over medium high eat, add steak and quick fry until browned. In a separate bowl, mix the hoisin and soy sauces, the sesame oil, garlic, sesame seeds, and ginger. Add to the beef and toss well. Add the bag of stirfry vegetables, and continue cooking over medium heat until they are warm and infused with the sauce. Serve alone or over rice.
