Spinach Beef Stir-Fry image

With tender strips of steak and fresh colorful vegetables, this mouthwatering stir-fry sizzles with flavor! "My versatile entree can also be made with chicken breasts instead of beef," says LaVerne Heath of Fountain, North Carolina. "If you like zucchini or squash, toss some in. A bag of frozen vegetables can also be used."-LaVerne Heath, Fountain, North Carolina
