Eating Well

Szechwan Beef

Want a secret recipe for healthy eating? Pick ingredients that pack in a nutrient punch like the powerful protein you get with beef. Compared to an equal serving of chicken breast, lean beef packs in over twice the iron, six times more B12 and over 7 times more zinc.

Quinoa and Beef-stuffed Peppers

With all the flavours of lasagna, kids love these colourful peppers. You will too, knowing that protein-rich lean beef and quinoa pack in a powerful nutrient punch.

Harvest Meat Loaf

Whole wheat couscous, extra lean ground beef and tons of healthy veggies makes this meatloaf a complete and satisfying meal! If making it with baby in mind, brush the Glaze topping on just part of the meat loaf and skip the Worcestershire sauce – serve with a splash of Worcestershire and some chutney or red pepper jelly on the side to season for adults.

Beef & Mushroom Thai Lettuce Cups

A super tasty and easy meal with Asian inspired flavours that come from ingredients that you likely have in your fridge. To make it a stand-alone meal (minus the lettuce cups), stir in some frozen mixed veggies, cook through and serve with steamed rice.

Speedy Skillet Steak with Rapid Ratatouille

Minute or Fast-fry Steaks make the perfect speedy weeknight dinner.

Vietnamese-style Grilled Steak & Noodle Salad

Barbecued Flat Iron shines in sandwiches and salads like this one!

Grilled Steak with Barley Salad

Barley has a unique chewy texture and nutty flavour. Cooking barley is easy and can be ready in under 30 minutes. This recipe is super speedy if you are using leftover steak or roast beef – a tip: cook an extra steak when you barbecue for a meal short-cut at the ready. Barley can also be cooked ahead, cooled and stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months – another short-cut for speedy cooking.

Pan-Seared Steak Salad with Strawberries and Blue Cheese

This healthy salad is a huge blast of summer colour! Perfect for a simple weeknight dinner for two, this is a delicious choice for a mid-summer meal on the deck. If you don’t have strawberries on hand, substitute any summer fruit such as blueberries, cherries or sliced peaches.

Baked Scotch Eggs

These are big, meaty and delicious. Enjoy them as a meal with steamed veggies or a side salad. Don’t forget to serve with some pickles and dipping sauce.

Steak Hash

Time to clean out the fridge! Everyone has one red pepper, a lonely zucchini or other random vegetable(s) on hand and some leftover steak or roast from a dinner on the weekend. They’re all just waiting to come together into this delicious and healthy recipe for two!

Skillet Beef Gnocchi

It’s easy to turn store-bought potato gnocchi into pillows of goodness with this simple and speedy dish. And the bonus… this makes 4 portions and the welcome leftovers are delicious reheated for lunch another day!

Speedy Gyro Beef Salad

If you love a classic Greek gyro, you’re going to love this speedy weeknight dinner for two! The star of the show is the delicious ground beef that is combined with gyro must-haves: feta cheese, tomato, Greek olives and cucumber dressing. The same great restaurant flavours, fast and easy at home!
