We really like this recipe. Quick, tasty, and the family did not leave any leftovers. However, it was not like the Mongolian beef we often order from our local Chinese restaurant.

We used cooked broccoli florets instead of the green onions and added 1 tsp. of onion powder. This recipe is delicious!!
