    I use - 3 cups green beans, 1 cup thawed frozen spinach, 2 cups shredded Chinese cabbage, 3 grated carrots, 1 cup bean sprouts

Method:
In a large frying pan cook mince and onion in oil. Drain any fat

This was very yummy. Ever since starting core I have been eyeing this meal off. Heaps of leftovers,which means I have 5 core bricks in the freezer and thats 5 less meals I have to worry about making over the next couple of weeks. I also cooked my vegetables a little longer only because I like them a bit softer. Dee I sometimes wonder where we would all be without you......thanks Jo :-)
