I think quick and easy to make meal prep is soooo essential especially when we’re working from home. I especially love making quick and easy meals but is super delicious and this Beef & Broccoli Spaghetti is a tried and tested family favourite – even my niece loves it.
It’s so simple to make that even if you’re doing your WFH (work from home!) as it’ll only take you 20-mins to prepare. I made this with beef but I’m pretty sure it goes well with any kind of protein. I added broccoli and carrots too to boost in the vegetable nutrition and of course, used coconut sugar and coconut aminos to replace brown sugar and soy sauce but if you don’t have them or prefer not to have that, then just stick to the OG!
Also, spaghetti is an open carb option but you can also use other carbs or if you’re looking at something low carb, zucchini noodles?
